I think this one at least is fixed in pybsddb's cvs. Can you update to the latest cvs?

Not if I can avoid it. If I have to merge now, how can I merge the next time?

Copying over the files won't work (because of the few changes I had to make), so I will have to apply patches. But how can I produce patches if I have to diff against some CVS snapshot? I don't want to keep the snapshot around, because that would mean nobody but me could merge the code the next time.

Of course, if there was a 3.4.1 release or some such, merging would be easier: I would now apply the diffs between 3.4.0 and 3.4.1, and the next time the diffs between 3.4.1, and the then-current release.
