wait wait wait

3.x *IS* backwards compatible with 2.x an 1.x, that is files of version 1.x
and
2.x can be accesses in 3.x, but not vice versa. So, everything should be
just fine,
it libdb was of version 3.x

Anyways, i still cannot get it, how can use at least make DB_FIle use the
newer
version (libdb2).
