does it handle arbitrary sized non-uniform records/keys and multiple
simultaneous writers?
If you want to work on this then maybe start with tdbtest.c or
tdbtool.c and get those working, using some shim routines. I have
another test program I'll be committing soon.

tdb.c doesn't depend on anything else in Samba. It can even be built
as a standalone library - just compile with -DSTANDALONE=1
locking.c also doesn't depend on any uid stuff.
