Before 5.0 is released, one of the changes I expect to be made (either
by me or by someone else) is the following:

- All global-scope DB 1.85 entry points hidden.
- All access from libc to DB 1.85 adjusted to use the new names.
- A new library, libdb185, to provide the official DB 1.85 API based
on the routines in libc.
