Does this affect any of the other slots?

It is possible that I would know if you asked me a year ago. I'm sorry but I don't have any other slot built or packaged at the moment. I suspect it's more likely that you have them -- in this case, just 'ls -l /usr/include/db*' and see if anything comes up.

If necessary, I will try to find more when time permits. Just let me know that I need to add it to my TODO.

Seems to be true at least as far back as 4.5.x; Not sure how much more past that.
