Apache 2 Migration issue

Let me start by saying I know this isn't an appropriate post, and
apologizing in advance, but I am getting no help from newsgroups or
other sources and would really like to solve this issue.
I am trying to migrate from the Apache 1.3 tree (currently 1.3.27) to
the Apache 2.0 tree. I have everything working fine EXCEPT user
authentication using DBM files.
The issue is that Apache 1.3 (and all my management scripts) use NDBM
files, and Apache 2 wants to use SDBM.
I am running Solaris 8, perl (5.8 on the devel machine and 5.61 on
production)
I have tried compiling Apache 2 with the --with-ndbm flag (and when I
watch configure it finds the header file to include it) but still no
luck. I have also tried adding the Directive of AuthDBMType NDBM to my
.htaccess files. What I get from that is a response of

(70023)This function has not been implemented on this platform:
could not open dbm (type NDBM) auth file:
I would really like to get this to work without having to change all my authentication scripts so any help would be dearly appreciated.
