Summary: Python 2.3 bsddb docs need update

Initial Comment:
We need to do /something/ about the bsddb module
documentation in Python 2.3.  The current docs are for
the old bsddb module and they're worse than out-of-date.  

Ideally, we'd import pybsddb's documentation in Python
latex format, and add docs for all the auxiliary
modules that come in the bsddb package.

If we don't have time for that, we should at least
update the docs to point to the pybsddb site and
document the list of additional modules.

Yes, this is important.  I've attached a patch against the
current python documentation that points to pybsddb.  I've
never edited the python latex docs before and am not
currently setup for compiling/viewing the updates or
verifying that i used the correct syntax.

can you review it and check it in if it makes sense?

unfortunately even the pybsddb project's documentation is a
bit dated (mostly in that several new features/functions
have been exposed since it was written) but it is a *much*
better starting point.
