[ale] OT: perl dbm files?

[Robert L. Harris]

Ok,
  The DBM's are looking ok, but I got a weird one...  I have this fragment:

----------------------------------------------------
    foreach $Directory (@DoDirs) {
      print "  \$Directory :$Directory:\n" if ($Verbose eq "T");
      unlink($DB);
      umask(0377);
      $DB="$Directory"."/"."$DBFile";
      print "  \$DB :$DB:\n" if ($Verbose eq "T");
      tie(%KnownGood, 'DB_File', $DB) or die "Can't open DB_File $DB : $!\n";

      %KnownGood=&GetDirStats($Directory);

      print "  Print File:\n" if ($Verbose eq "T");
      foreach $Key (keys %KnownGood) {
        print "    \$KnownGood{$Key} :$KnownGood{$Key}:\n" if ($Verbose eq "T");
      }

      untie(%KnownGood);
    }
----------------------------------------------------

The print of the HASH looks good, but it doesn't even create $DB and
it doesn't die.  Thoughts?
