Why can't it just be called bsddb?  As far as I could tell tell, it provides
a bsddb-compatible interface at the module level.  The only change at the
bsddb level is the addition of an extra object (db?  I can't recall right
now and have to get offline soon for the credit card machine so I can't
pause to check ;-) which gives the programmer access to all the PyBSDDB
