Hi guys,
I'm _very_ new to the Berkeley DB way of doing things so please bear with me.
map-root allows you to inspect the root BTree of a bdb store, but having
created a few instances of a persistent class and performed a map-root, there's
no sign of these stored instances. get-instances-by-clas

Nothing (reliable) that isn't already addressed in the FAQ. I suspect there's
something in git SBCL (1.0.32.xx) which was causing me problems on my 32-bit

I removed some stale .dx32fsl files and I'm pleased to say that bdb stores are
now working with a 32-bit CCL on my Mac. (I ended up in '32-bit mode' while
wrangling with SBCL, which I still haven't managed to get working).

attempts to port Berkeley DB to CFFI (available through clbuild) but without

It fails before this file is built, i.e., there is no libmemutil.so. Instead,
there's a strange directory

Well, I'm a lot closer, but still not quite there yet.

I'm disappointed to have to say that elephant's BDB store doesn't work

Well I'll update the passage when I submit my patch.
In the mean time, it'd be nice to get elephant working on my Mac (I bet it's
fine under Debian).
I've installed MacPort's db47 but am getting the same error as before

Yes there is. It clearly states in the manual that elephant only works with
BerkeleyDB version 4.5.

I am able to build a near fully-functional Info manual by running 'make

I can then run 'makeinfo --force elephant.texinfo' with only 3
