Shouldn't we drop tokyo cabinet support, before we ever make a stable
release with it, so we don't have to maintain it?

+1 for removing it (if Tokyo Cabinet indeed is dead).

Preferably replace it with Kyoto Cabinet support I suppose.

-0 for adding support for Kyoto Cabinet this late in the process.

I added the TC support initially, so I can look at replacing it over the
weekend.

Tokyo Cabinet support was added to ext/dba "recently".. but Tokyo
Cabinet is about to die these days, and getting replaced with Kyoto
Cabinet.

Is it actually dead? 1 still states: "I'll maintain the both of Tokyo
Cabinet and Kyoto Cabinet because their values are different", as well
as noting that Tokyo Cabinet is quicker in the single-threaded case.

Given that both are maintained, as far as I can tell, as Tokyo Cabinet
is quicker in the single-threaded case, as most PHP applications are,
there is no reason to remove it.

All for adding Kyoto Cabinet support, though.
