Hi Edward, I'm unable to reproduce with my local version of the latest Elephant (latest, ccl64, DB 4.7, Mac). Can you give me a transcript like:
(setf btree (make-btree)) (setf (get-value 'foo btree) 10) (setf (get-value 'bar btree) 20) (dump-btree btree) (remove-kv 'foo btree) (dump-btree btree) It's possible that there is some low-level issue talking to the DB API in the FFI between Elephant and BDB. I don't have time to test on SBCL today, but perhaps someone else does. I might be able to get to it this weekend.
