I just wrote some stuff in an application using (G)DBM.  For
simple things, it is probably sufficient, and it has the advantage
that it is probably already on the box that your application
is to go on.

My worry is that I have something that could be useful to others,
but I don't want the requirement of "now go out and install MySQL
or whatever your favourite DB engine is" to stop people from
having a look.
