I'm using sbcl 0.9.11 on linux, with the bdb backend, and it seems to work
fine.

I'm only starting to use it, however, so I didn't stress it very much, yet.

There's already a couple of things that bugged me :

- libpthread.so.0 is /lib/libpthread.so.0 on my system (gentoo), so I need to
  change the corresponding line manually in db-bdb/sleepycat.lisp. I think it
  would be a good candidate for a parameter in config.lisp

- open-store (and with-open-store) fails with a pathname in the controller spec.
  I attached the backtrace in case it is useful. It works fine with a
namestring,
  however.

As I said, I'm just starting to use it, so if I see any obvious mistake in the
documentation during this week-end, I will report it here.
