Yes it has, but which version of BSD DB gets used when the release team 
builds the Win32 installer depends on the version installed on the 
installer builder's machine.

If you can, I'd suggest posting a bug report on SF against 2.4 to see 
whether you can encourage the installer builder to upgrade BSD DB - 
though do be certain to check what's in 2.4.1c1 first.
