[issue5937] Problems with dbm documentation

[Mitchell Model]

Mitchell Model <mlm at acm.org> added the comment:

And, checking the methods of dbm.ndbm, I find get() and setdefault() but
nothing like iterkeys() or iteritems(), just keys().

I think it might also be worth pointing out that a particular variation
of dbm may be chosen to create a database file by calling the
submodule's open function -- dbm.gdbm.open(), dbm.ndbm.open(), or
dbm.dumb.open().
