Hi -

Right now you can compile mod_auth_dbm with AP_AUTH_DBM_USE_APR and it
will use whatever dbm you've configured apr for.  It #defines dbm_open et.
al. to apr_dbm_open, which is kind of lame.  It should probably be
rewritten to simply just use apr_dbm for everything...

If my understanding is correct, mod_auth_db was there to allow you
to force berkeley db on platforms where it is not the default dbm..
If thats the case, it should now be obsolete since you can compile
mod_auth_dbm against whatever apr dbm backend you choose.
