I've thought about writing such a thing.  The first problem is
that the dbopen(3) routines call malloc(3) directly, which can
confuse any Java runtime rather quickly.

So the first step would be 'extracting' these calls in the dbopen(3)
stuff to (optionally) go through a user-supplied function vector.
Shouldn't be too hard.
