That's not its intention. This script can be used to migrate .db to
.cdb. We don't have a framework or code yet to merge the "modifications"
into the cdbdump format, the cdb paradigm is quite different from the
bdb one.

I wrote the script as a component to enable later CDB benchmarks or
CDB-vs-BDB-shootouts.

The datastore_cdb.c is also still missing, but it looks as though Greg
is about to remedy this. :-)
