In general, please submit reports of test failures to the Python bug
tracker: http://sourceforge.net/bugs/?func=addbug&group_id=5470
It is much easier to track bugs that have been entered in the database
than it is to scan the newsgroup for them.

Does test_dbm crash all by itself, e.g.
python
>>> import test.test_dbm

Can you provide a stack trace from the debugger?
What platform and compiler are you using?
