patch

Under certain conditions nvi crashes with:

    BDB0635 DB_CREATE must be specified to create databases.
    Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I sometimes see it using this tcsh alias:

    alias pvi 'env EXINIT="${EXINIT} expandtab" /usr/local/bin/nvi

This patch applies a macports.org fix found in this github commit:

    https://github.com/handyman5/homebrew/commit/05b62a22b545761870fb1046d1c2c49cdba06b38

that adds the DB_CREATE flag when using bdb >= 4.4.
