I still think we may want to pull PyBSDDB into the standard distro, as
a way to provide BDB api's > 1.85.  The question is, what would this
new module be called?  I dislike "bsddb3" -- which I think PyBSDDB
itself uses -- because it links against BDB 4.0.

OTOH, PyBSDDB seems to be quite solid, so I think it's mature enough
to migrate into the Python distro.  I'm cc'ing pybsddb-users for
feedback.
