I can tell you what on the DB is involved. On the DB module initialization
is needed only because on some system, some problems have been reported if
the DB files were not already created so some initialization operations are
performed on the DB files only.

The right call is simply $db->initDB( MODE=>"FORCE" ). The force mode is
suggested to avoid problems if files are not created when storing objects
(this is a PERL bug/unsaid feature (!!!), I have no other explanation).

The module itself uses the following module (in a fallback order):

        DB_File         --> Berkeley DB
        GDBM_File       --> GNU DB
        NDBM_File       --> NDBM

That's it.
