You can execute something like asterisk -rx "dialplan show" > 
some_file.conf, but unfortunately the result cannot be directly parsed 
by Asterisk. Still it will give you a readable snapshot of your current 
dialplan.

Of course, Asterisk was still running at the time, and everything continued to work (except for voicemail, which was stored on the same disk) right up until I shut down Asterisk to investigate what was going on.  Because the disk was dead, though, I couldn't start Asterisk back up after that, and OF COURSE the backups were not firing off correctly so now we are faced with regenerating the config again (including dialplan) from scratch.

I could have saved myself a crap-ton of work if this were possible...
