The DB_File module could be replaced with a portable use of Tie::DBI 
connecting to any RDBMS for which the DBD driver was installed 
(including CSV for text files). This could be a configuration option 
allowing the user to port to any system that supports those modules. 
Even simpler, jdresolve could just read the hash from disk and write it 
to disk with any of the Perl streaming modules or as a simple flat file 
format, which would work on all systems.


But, I don't have the time to work on that right now either. Maybe John 
Rowell might? :)
