dbm contains functions that return structures.  GCC structure
returning is incompatible with that of PCC-compiled programs on
most machines.  GCC 1.34 comes with a new switch -fpcc-struct-return
which tells it to use a compatible convention.  Alas, this flag
has bugs in 1.34.  They are fixed for 1.35, to appear in about
3 weeks.
