Added comment explaining the only warning produced by makeindex, since there

doesn't appear to be a way to fix that's reasonable.

% Note that if this section appears on the same page as the first
% paragraph of the dbm module section, makeindex will produce the
% warning:
%
% ## Warning (input = lib.idx, line = 1184; output = lib.ind, line = 852):
% -- Conflicting entries: multiple encaps for the same page under same key.
%
% This is because the \bimodindex{gdbm} and \refbimodindex{gdbm}
% entries in the .idx file are slightly different (the \bimodindex{}
% version includes "|textbf" at the end to make the defining occurance
% bold). There doesn't appear to be anything that can be done about
% this; it's just a little annoying. The warning can be ignored, but
% the index produced uses the non-bold version.
This module is quite similar to the \code{dbm} module, but uses \code{gdbm}
instead to provide some additional functionality. Please note that
the file formats created by \code{gdbm} and \code{dbm} are incompatible.
