Uh-oh, PR time.
The source has it (/usr/src/lib/libc/db/hash/ndbm.c) but it's not declared.
add to /usr/include/ndbm.h:
int dbm_error(DBM *);
int dbm_clearerr(DBM *);

ndbm is a wrapper over the 'db' package which deals with a single *.db file.
There isn't a separate *.pag file (see README in src/lib/libc/db/hash).
Alternative (don't even _think_ of doing any dups or writes on this):
#undefine dbm_pagfno
#define dbm_pagfno(a) dbm_dirfno(a)

no idea, do you use this often ?

install gdbm from the ports ?
