The bsddb standard module is such a thing. It actually interfaces to
the 1.85 API, but BSDDB 2 supports that API still.

An interface to  BSDDB 3.1, as available from  Sleepycat, is available
from

ftp://starship.python.net/pub/crew/amk/new/BerkeleyDB-2.9.0.tar.gz

If you want to use advanced BSDDB features, I recommend to upgrade to
BSDDB 3 first. If you merely want to access a BSDDB style database,
you should use the module included in Python 1.5.2.

Martin
