Any time the primary mode of interaction with an artifact
is discovery something is deeply wrong.

I recently discovered that the format of the aliases dbm files
is sensitive to the configuration.  This bites you when trying
to test major changes to sendmail.cf.  I wanted to leave most of
the traffic going through the normal configuration and divert
a small part of it through the new one, a complete re-write.
But the aliases.pag file is 32Kb under the old one and 51Kb
under the new one, built from identical aliases files, and
only one at a time will work.

Is there a good reason for the difference, or could it be
fixed?  There really are good reasons for wanting to run
multiple configurations in parallel, at least transiently.

I'm working with 5.61.
