That way lies madness.

I started looking at that code a few times a while back, hoping to fix things, add functionality, etc, and gave up. I ran into it again attempting to add mongodb to the menagerie. The database layer is hopelessly strangled in its own constructs, and nothing short of a complete rewrite will save it. Fortunately, a complete rewrite is right around the corner. Or so I was told in 2006 (new database layer scheduled for Rev 2.8). And note that all existing database bugs in the bugzilla database at that time were marked Resolved in favor of a single bug report (3662) to cover the omnibus database layer rewrite.
