Summary: shelve/bsddb crash on db close

Initial Comment:
I have a 300 meg bsddb/hash db created and accessed by
shelve.  No problems when running python only.  But I
started accessing the code that opens it via a windows
DLL, opening and closing the DB on PROCESS_ATTACH and
DETACH.  All of a sudden, it would crash in the bsddb
module on closing/del'ing the db.  

Found a workaround by opening the db with
shelve.BsddbShelf(..) instead of shelve.open(..) - then
it closed fine when the DLL unloaded, no crash.

Assuming this is fixed since there was no response.  Closing.

If we don't hear back within a month, we should close this
as probably fixed by the patch that was checked in.

Perhaps this is related to bug 1413192?  Could you try the
patch there and see if it fixes this problem?
