Berkeley DB has grown a lot over the years. I recently ported Ken's
dbm library from V7 to native Plan 9, and modified it to store all
integers on disk in big-endian order, so that dbm databases can be
shared across architectures (there are still locking problems to be
solved for concurrent access, though). I did the same for Chris
Torek's extended dbm, mdbm, which adds multiple keys per value and the
ability to have multiple databases open simultaneously. My mdbm port
will also run on Unix, so one can share my mdbm databases across
architectures there too. All of this has been only lightly exercised,
but if you'd like a copy, let me know.
