I hate to see that BDB code being used for anything new, since it's
essentially a fork of something that's now completely unmaintained
upstream. I don't know that I have a good alternative, though (although I
bet a simple scan of a text file would be fast enough in many cases).
Have folks considered embedding TDB? http://tdb.samba.org/
