I've just checked in some changes which more or less complete support
for slocate compatibility. updatedb will produce such databases
(--dbformat=slocate) and locate will consume them.
Remaining things to do:
- security audit of the locate code
- allow locate to be installed setuid
- once the code is a little more widely tested, omit the warning
message that we currently produce when reading an slocate database
