Indeed, you are right, NetBSD is using Berkeley DB release 1.85 for
license reasons. From http://netbsd.org/Documentation/software/3rdparty/:
db:
Version in tree: 1.85
Current Version: 1.86/4.3.28
Maintainer(external): Keith Bostic <address@hidden>
Archive Site: http://www.sleepycat.com/download/index.shtml
Notes: Note that we cannot use db 2.x for license reasons.
Three bug fixes against 1.85 sent back to bostic. Changes
to man/recno.3, hash/hsearch.c, and hash/ndbm.c
(serious). Import of DB 1.85 was done via a sh script
which converted the distribution into the netbsd format.
The script can be found in src/lib/libc/db/db2netbsd.
Best regards,
Igor.
