So, I propose that the session helper is upgraded to both the new
API
and to use the DB_ENV functionality. I will write the patch. Any
objections?
Oh, I forgot to say: the DB_ENV functionality requires a *directory*
rather than a file to be specified for the database (it creates
several
files). So, although I don't see a problem with this in principle, it
does break backwards compatibility. Any thoughts? Just bite the
bullet?

Um. Maybe check for dir/file type on the -b value and use it as base
path?
