If you go and read docs/api_c/db_list.html in any newer
BerkelyDB source tree, you find some methods not
exported in/usr/lib/python2.3/bsddb/init.py
although at least some do exist in dbobj.py.

For example, of my interrest were two mentioned in the
patch. I believe someone should go and make sure they
are present.

Please read docs/ref/env/db_config.html and allow users to
specify the DB_CONFIG file to override any methods not
expoerted through bsddb wrapper yet. Using that approach,
user can alter many options available only when database is
created!

This won't happen as bsddb was removed from py3k.
