The pybsddb project does not have its own copy of the code, it just pulls Modules/bsddb.c and the Lib/bsddb/ directly from the python repository using a script.

Ah, excellent, that makes it a lot easier for the rest of python-dev.

Its appreciated if people keep Modules/bsddb.c and Lib/bsddb/ backwards compatible with the few revs of python. Otherwise I end up finding out and fixing it myself with ifdefs on the rare occasions when I attempt to make another pybsddb module release and find it doesn't work with an old version. ;)

I'll see about making all the recent changes backwardly-compatible.
