After a bit more research I deduced, that libmarc-charset-perl, as present in sid, was build with gdbm-1.8.3. gdbm-1.9 is incompatible with 1.8.3, so it is pure luck, that thigs worked with gdbm-1.14. I am sorry to say it, but probably binNMU or sourceful upload would be required for all packages, that bundle gdbm databases, generated by (gdbm << 1.9)
