What branch, and for how long has this dialog been sitting around?

It's the trunk; at the moment the debugger is sitting there with python_d.exe at a breakpoint. The current instance of python_d being debugged is only a day or so old. I don't know when this problem started happening, but I think it's been a while (it was happening for all the visible builds on the dashboard when I first noticed it a day or two ago).

For crashes in 3.0, there should not be any such dialogs anymore, but there may have been before I turned them off.

Thanks. You can discard any such dialogs - most likely, they really were from the 3.0 branch, which is known to crash in bsddb.

Ok.
