If a bsddb.db.DB object is closed before any DBCursor objects referencing it are closed, python will crash when the cursors are closed or deleted. Workaround: never close a database with open cursors. this is annoying in unittest code where a tearDown method closes the DB in the exception handling path on a test failure before the cursors have been closed or garbage collected. I've got a test in my sandbox, I'll check it in with the fix as its a crasher otherwise.
