APM: Problem with DB_File and tie'd hash

I have software that reads sendmail's access db using DB_File and perls tie.

I just upgraded to a new version of sendmail (8.12.11), and now the tie is
failing with this message:

Unable to open access.db file '/etc/mail/access.db': Inappropriate ioctl for device at ./relaydelay.test.pl line 1437.

Anybody know what I need to update to fix this?  Are the db formats
different?  Does perl need to be recompiled using another db lib?
