I know it is a mess.  I also do not understand why the Seamonkey/Thunderbird
project has not converted those files to sqlite by now, like it did for
all other datastores.  There appears to have been a project to do this,
it encountered a performance problem, and it was simply abandoned.
Unbelievable.

Why?  This is a very much required tool to move .mab addressbooks to
another platform.  .ldif is widely supported as an import format.
