so why is rpmdbFirstRecNum() in rpm3 and not in rpm4?

An example from apt:

#ifdef RPM4
    Header h;
    if ((h = rpmdbNextIterator(Rpmiter))) {
        h = headerLink(h);
    }
    offset = rpmdbGetIteratorOffset(Rpmiter);
    return h;
#else
    if (offset == 0) {
        offset = rpmdbFirstRecNum(db);
    } else {
        offset = rpmdbNextRecNum(db, offset);
    }
    if (offset==0)
        return NULL;

    return rpmdbGetRecord(db, offset);
#endif
