just had reason to be looking at dumbdbm.py - perhaps
"terminallybrokendbm.py" would be a better name. There's a whole host of
"oh. my. god." type things in there that are just broken, with massive
dataloss problems if you end up (innocently) getting it from anydbm.py.

I'm going to fix it either this arvo/evening or tomorrow, but it really 
shouldn't go out as part of 2.2 in it's current form. Is it too late to
consider either fixing it or removing it from anydbm's list?
