I've had one response to this so far, from Mike Pritchard (thanks Mike).
He's corrected some of the macro use in the submitted documentation,
but said he didn't do a technical review.
So I'm still waiting for any DBM hackers out there to take the 10 minutes
required to look at this.
If there's no response in (say) 3 days, I'll commit Mike's cleaned up
version -- if there are any inaccuracies, I'm sure the wider FreeBSD
user base will let us know about them. . .
