To be clear, I should point out that the "db" library does not appear
to read ndbm databases.  This is a requirement - or I'll have to find
another way to do the project.

The idea was to modify NDBM to allow building both big and little
endian NIS maps - so an NIS master could build both, and NIS slaves
could NFS mount the maps.
