Err.... No.

It is not clear to me that python 2.6/3.0 will be published with BDB 4.6
or 4.7 support. 4.6 has several known issues, apparently solved in 4.7.
I will comment when I have spend some time with 4.7. Any comment, Greg?.

In any case, what would be the procedure to update the buildbot
infraestructure?. No, DO NOT update Berkeley DB yet!.

I keep a private branch in pybsddb for BDB 4.7 support, waiting for
Oracle publication. Since they already pushed 4.7.25 out (no pre warning
for bindings developers, too bad!), I think I can publish pybsddb 4.7.0
in a couple of days. That done, I will update python version.

PS: pybsddb 4.7.0 will support Berkeley DB 4.0 to 4.7. So, the buildbots
don't need to be upgraded.. unless we decide that Python 4.6/3.0 will
have Berkeley DB 4.7.
