Third iteration. services_mkdb(8) has a new argument to decide what
output format to create, defaulting to cdb. Use the fast_divide32,
dropping lookup performance for getservbyport(3) by 10% on my Core2.

Patch can be found at http://www.netbsd.org/~joerg/cdb+services.diff

Numbers have been posted yesterday for lookup performance. Any other
concerns that have not been addressed?
