I went back to my Windows XP build, which I know worked once upon a time,
and updated to the newest Elephant. With BDB 4.5 and 4.7 installed
side-by-side, I configured Elephant to use 4.5: the build worked fine. I
reconfigured for 4.7, and the build broke with error 22. Back to 4.5: build
works fine. Back again to 4.7: still broken.

Has Elephant ever been tested against BDB 4.7 on Windows?

At any rate, I can supply dlls which I know work for BDB 4.5 (attached).
They work with the newest version of Elephant.

By the way, line 65 of ele-bdb.asd is hard coded to "-ldb45". That probably
needs to change. (But it doesn't solve our bug; I already fixed it local and
it didn't help.)

Hope that helps?
