Hmmm okay I was just wondering because Sirv-2.3.0 has it in and if I
recall, Sirv is based from IRC-Services 3.3.6 or similar, before the
non-Endian specific save/load_xx_dbase routines were added in 4.x.
I have briefly tried to 'port' this feature but have been unable to do so
as Sirv's MemoServ SEND command seems very different from 4.4.8's
command... I also don't know how the list in general feels about patching
IRC-Services as a whole.
