Yes, but the obvious culprits have been tried. What's left is to
figure out what else could cause this.

There is a brute force method available right now. Do you have package
caches on the working systems?

Chroot into one of the broken systems (from another medium or over the
network), pacman -U everything from the old (untouched) cache.

"System Restore" would've really helped here :)
