Summary: Mode argument of dumbdbm does not work

Initial Comment:
In dumbdbm.py 2.15, support for a mode argument was

added. However, this support does not work: The mode

argument is passed to __builtin__.open, which does not

support specification of a mode. Instead, the third

argument to that function specifies the buffer size.

I have what I think is a correct patch, but I should be able

to simplify it (related to handling the umask).  Untested on

Windows.
