dbverify is certainly not buggy. Most likely you''re running on a
Little-Endian
machine, and FDS is not canonicalizing its keys into Big-Endian format.
(Instead it must be using a custom key comparison function internally.) Since
dbverify only uses the default key comparison function, it will see the keys
as being out of order (even though they''re in correct order according
to FDS''s
custom function).
