Summary: Segfaults with concurrent sqlite db access and schema change

Initial Comment:
This was submitted with the pysqlite tracker:
http://initd.org/tracker/pysqlite/ticket/170

It can lead to segfaults in some cases when schema
changes happen at critical points in time. It's a very
exotic bug that you can only trigger with very unusual
database access patterns (running lots and I mean
*lots* of database schema changes while other
threads/processes access the database).

But it's a segfault problem nonetheless and I'd like to
fix it before Python 2.5 final. It should not be a
showstopper, though.

I'm busy right now, but I will attack this problem
early next week.
