There's actually a difference of opinion about it, unfortunately.  After
the next patch, the code will read:

#ifdef NDBM
#ifdef _CX_UX
                nextdkey = dbm_nextkey(tb->tbl_dbm, dkey);
#else
                nextdkey = dbm_nextkey(tb->tbl_dbm);
#endif
#else
                nextdkey = nextkey(dkey);
#endif
