Hello Ian, Elliott, I haven't much more time over the Chrismass days, but whatI have seen so far is :
Btw - the problem with Elephant/BDB on LWW is not really an Elephant one - if compiling under cygwin - there is a clash between the cygwin and bdb definition of ssize_t, they have different sizes, Bu if commented out from the bdb db.h, then we get the strange errors because the pointers in the function table of the ENV struct get displaced and wrong functions get called. Under VC++ the problem with the function addresses does not exist, but there I get other also non Elephant-related problems. Now I'll have again some time to investigate the issue further.
