-/* If we are running as root and this is the first access to the database, its
-files will be owned by root. We want them to be owned by exim. We detect this
-situation by noting above when we had to create the lock file or the database
-itself. Because the different dbm libraries use different extensions for their
-files, I don't know of any easier way of arranging this than scanning the
-directory for files with the appropriate base name. At least this deals with
-the lock file at the same time. Also, the directory will typically have only
-half a dozen files, so the scan will be quick.
-
-This code is placed here, before the test for successful opening, because there
-was a case when a file was created, but the DBM library still returned NULL
-because of some problem. It also sorts out the lock file if that was created
-but creation of the database file failed. */
