7Unless you've upgraded your DB library manually you will see failures in
8db-recno tests 51, 53 and 55. The behavior these tests are checking is
9broken in the DB library which is included with the OS. You can ignore
10the errors if you're never going to use the broken functionality (recno
11databases with a modified bval), otherwise you'll have to upgrade your
12DB library or OS.
