dbopen(3) manpage, but no library implements it?

[Will Lowe <harpo@thebackrow.net>]

I'm looking at fixing a bug on one of my packages:

http://www.debian.org/News/2008/20080229

... the binary in question isn't being built because it wants to use  
dbopen(3).    We seem to have a manpage for dbopen(3) but no library  
that provides it.  Is the only option to port the code to the DB- 
>open() stuff in libdb4*-dev?
