The dbh lookup was for country code/name.  We only ship domestically so
so I just set those values and commented the lookup.  Seems to be OK.

Then I got a half dozen POSIX / Exporter errors about redefining modules.
Changed the "use POSIX;" statement in RateV4 tag to "use POSIX ();" and
these went away.  Is that safe to do?

So!  The new tag code is in place, but still no USPS shipping being 
calculated.
Working on it...
