Both dbm_forder and dbm_dirinfo are wrapped inside __BSD_VISIBLE, although
dbm_dirinfo is defined in ndbm.c but it will not be usable i guess.
.
I explored a bit, found that some features are for BSD systems and are not
compatible with POSIX,
Moreover dbm_forder and dbm_dirinfo are not mentioned in open group page.
.
I didn't planned to modify the contents much when i ported
It from FreeBSD and hence they are present here. If required I can remove
them and send a new patch.
