This looks like pretty old DBM code. I'm not sure I'd rely on it

wonder if
Apple's shipping a more up-to-date database somewhere....
Got it in one. This is VERY old DBM code with known flaws like this.
Unfortunately, later DBM code has the sleepy cat "conditional license"
which prohibits us from using it for lots of reasons I won't go into
here, so that's the only DBM code available. There's always sqlite3...
