Alas, no, ZODB 3.3 has no such thing.  IDataManagerOriginal was introduced
in ZODB 3.4, and seems to have gotten thrown away during the ZODB sprint,
although a comment still refers to it.  Have to look at an old revision to
find it now:

And betting there's more to be fixed than we realize even now <0.9 wink>.
