That'd be great.

I freshly untarred the main dir, applied patch, set the variables

All I see in the README regarding GDBM is:

   GNUnet needs to store data in a simple database. We currently
   support GDBM or TDB. You can also use a simple directory, but
   this will be slow.

How do I make it use TDB?  Or I'd even be willing to do the other
thing if it would make it work.  I'd really like to support gnunet.
