Comment:

 The message comes from db4.  Nvi is requesting a non-power of 2 page size
 with its call to db->set_pagesize().  The message comes out on OSX as well
 as Linux.  I don't know why NetBSD doesn't get the same message.  I
 haven't looked.

 I developed a fix that works to address this issue on both Linux and OSX.
 I uploaded a patch for Macports nvi that I installed and tested.  Seems to
 work fine.  I wish I understood the code better, but the fix does solve
 the problem and I think doesn't introduce any other side effects or
 additional issues. Let me know if there's any problems applying or using
 it.
