>Description:
	*.db format declared in lib/libc/db should be common to all archs.
	the format is bi-endian, however, it is not safe against 64bit/32bit
	difference.
	for instance, lib/libc/db/hash/hash.h uses "int" in struct hashhdr.
	it results in 32bit field in 32bit arch, and 64bit field in 64bit arch.
	therefore, we cannot share *.db file across 32bit and 64bit platforms.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
	rewrite all on-disk format structure to use int32_t and such.
	it would be a bit difficult to provide backward compatibility for
	64bit-based *.db files.
