Aha. I'm about to try an experiment with the BDB functions, just in
case. (Nowadays I normally run with BDB 4.1)

Yes, I suppose that's possible. I've just tried it with 1.85 on Solaris,
and it works fine, but it could be an OS thing, of course.
Kirill, can you try changing "flags|O_CREAT" to "O_RDWR|O_CREAT" in the
source file dbfn.c in the function dbfn_open? That seems a perfectly
reasonable thing to do.
