You need to make sure your Berkeley DB install also has the utility programs
available, specifically db_recover and db_checkpoint.  I recall a friend
having trouble with the utilities not being available. That's REALLY the only
potential snag and it's a nonissue if the DB version stays the same.

If pagesize and ptree_pagesize were not already set in sksconf, they need to
be added specifying the old default page sizes
