Subject: Disable use of BerkeleyDB 4.6.x to see what the odd platform buildbots
X-Git-Tag: v2.6a1~348
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f866bac73c6a6f6a15ef2217cb5ac9f3160a9378;p=thirdparty%2FPython%2Fcpython.git

Disable use of BerkeleyDB 4.6.x to see what the odd platform buildbots
think.  In particular, neal norwitz has traced an Ubuntu sparc64 crash
to the Lib/test/bsddb/test_basics.py test when opening a db with DB_THREAD.
