I can hand over the ownership of lgdbm in the repository to you, if
you want to maintain the rockspec. I believe I wrote the rockspecs for
many of lhf's libraries early on, but I have no desire to keep
maintaining them all — if you're using the library, perhaps it would
be a good idea to take over the rockspec ('cause I don't think lhf
himself will; at least I've never seen any movement from his part
towards supporting LuaRocks).
