"Should you be worried?" -- If all but those two test pass, you probably have a usable
system for most purposes, and it will take you a long time to trip over whatever bugs
causes those two failures. But, we should try to get to the bottom of those failures;
in particular I would like to know if they are related to BDB 4.3 vs. BDB 4.4, or if
they simply represent a bug that your LISP version exposes. Either are possible.
The tests were all green on all of the systems that Ian and I could easily test on
at the time of the release; I wrote those in this group, and asked for other test
results, but got very few responses.
What architecture, OS, and LISP version are you using?
Do we need to be both 4.3 and 4.4 compatible? Can I just leave the two files
in the repository and document when to use the 4.3 version?

Hi everybody, Unless the BDB people are lying in their Changelog, the only thing that changed between 4.3 and 4.4 as far as Elephant should be concerned are the constants in db.h. Diff information provided below. I don't use Elephant for anything right now (but I am planning to in the future, and what better way to get familiar than fixing things like this?), so the test suite is the only thing I have to go by. For both BDB 4.3 and 4.4, do-backend-tests passes everything but PCURSOR2 and INDEXING-REDEF-CLASS. Should I be worried?
