+ 	1.85 you will need to edit Modules/Setup to build the bsddb185
+ 	module and add a line to sitecustomize.py which makes it the
+ 	default.  In Modules/Setup a line like
+ 
+ 	    bsddb185 bsddbmodule.c
+ 
+ 	should work.  (You may need to add -I, -L or -l flags to direct the
+ 	compiler and linker to your include files and libraries.)  You can
+ 	then force it to be the version people import by adding
+ 
+ 	    import bsddb185 as bsddb
+ 
+ 	in sitecustomize.py.

  64-bit platforms: The modules audioop, imageop and rgbimg don't work.
  	The setup.py script disables them on 64-bit installations.
