According to the README in the CDB archive, the CDB C source is public
domain, so if you strip out the docs, etc. you could put it in main.
Also, Exim uses a GPL'ed CDB. From spec.txt.gz:
. Support for the cdb (Constant DataBase) lookup method is provided by code
contributed by Nigel Metheringham of Planet Online Ltd. which contains
the following statements:
_________________________________________________________________________

This code implements Dan Bernstein's Constant DataBase (cdb) spec.
Information, the spec and sample code for cdb can be obtained from
http://www.pobox.com/~djb/cdb.html. This implementation borrows some code
from Dan Bernstein's implementation (which has no license restrictions
applied to it).
