Reference Manual and store.h are incomplete about store_typed_open. 
Here is what is in libstore/typed.c, and what the code does:

/* Open the store indicated by NAME, which should consist of a store 
type name followed by a ':' and any type-specific name, returning the 
new store in STORE.  If NAME doesn't contain a `:', then it will be 
interpreted as either a class name, if such a class occurs in CLASSES, 
or a filename, which is opened by calling store_open on NAME; a `:' at 
the end or the beginning of NAME unambiguously causes the remainder to 
be treated as a class-name or a filename, respectively.  CLASSES is used 
to select classes specified by the type name; if it is 0, 
STORE_STD_CLASSES is used.  */

error_t
store_typed_open (const char *name, int flags,
                  const struct store_class *const *classes,
                  struct store **store)
