Okay, adding import gdbm makes it work.  Yesterday I searched all 
around for dbm clones and all I came up with was dumbdbm.  Guess next 
time I should just start typing away see what happens or remember to 
look in the Plugins folder.

BTW, what is the if 0 part for?  In fact, if 0 seems like it would 
always be false, so the import gdbm part would never be run.
