gdbm.c is correct, but it will be 1.6 soon.

I got two errors (about an unused function and an unused variable), and
these will be fixed in the next version. I will also have to wrap the
gdbm_reorganize() function or your recent files database will grow to 240K
after a while. TDB does not have this problem, but I guess gdbm is still more
widespread.

This is OK except for the misspelling of slsh, and as you probably know, slrn
can also load modules, and JED 0.99-16 can not.
