I'm not 100% positive, but I believe at USENIX I heard that Oz's package
is not compatible with dbm/ndmb/gdbm, just faster.  

There are some other mini-dbm's around but I don't know anything about
their functionality.  Maybe dbz from Henry Spencer's CNEWS will work.
I didn't try to add dbm since I was having enough trouble already.
