Larry McVoy provided the mdbm database engine from BitKeeper for use in
kbuild 2.5 release 2.0-2.4, and was extremely helpful in answering my
questions about mdbm.  Unfortunately some of the processing required by
kbuild 2.5 did not fit well with the mdbm model.  Since an application
specific database will always outperform a generic database, I took
advantage of knowledge about the kbuild data and wrote an application
specific database engine.

This is not a criticism of mdbm - it is a good generic database engine.
I could squeeze a few more seconds out of the build time by using
application specific knowledge.
