Pkgsrc changes:
- Tests 148-149 in t/db-btree.t were confused by the fact that
DB_File seemed to run in compatibility mode ($DB_File::db_185_compat is 1),
although db1 was used. Thus, we enable this mode only for db2/db3/db4.
- Patch-aa for Makefile.pl now initialises VER_INFO to avoid a warning.
- Tested with db1-db4 on NetBSD and db2-db4 on Solaris.

DB_File is a module which allows Perl programs to make use of the
facilities provided by Berkeley DB version 1. (DB_File can be built
version 2, 3 or 4 of Berkeley DB, but it will only support the 1.x
features).
Note: this package is skipped on systems providing DB 1 as we assume that
the perl5 package picked it up so already provides this module.
