Undoubtedly. It rocks for our purposes. I'd just feel a lot better if we
didn't have this huge chunk of basically dead code in CVS. I mean,
couldn't we just require a fixed version of Berkeley DB and write a
proper database access layer, independent of the db code itself? The way
this is normally done?
