Charles,

Jarkko removed NDBM_File & ODBM_File from Cygwin builds.
What do you think, should I try to reinclude them?  Is
it doing s.th. useful I'm not aware of?  I cannot remember
the reason why it was removed.  I'll try to figure out
after I know if I should reinclude it.
Someone else needs ODBM_File or NDBM_File in future?

To be exact: NDBM_File & ODBM_File.  I got all tests passing, just one
test failing with NDBM_File & ODBM_File:
Failed 2/709 test scripts, 99.72% okay. 6/65198 subtests failed, 99.99% okay.
Failed Test                 Stat Wstat Total Fail  Failed  List of Failed

46 tests and 307 subtests skipped.

where tie_ndbm.t fails with this:
