python-2.5.2-berkeleydb-4.6.patch

The comment in setup.py is about versions <4.6.21:4.6.
Comment 2 Holger Hoffstätte 2008-06-21 12:36:54 UTC 
Does anybody know if the comment removed by the patch regarding db-4.6's lack of stability is still valid? I've been running 4.6.21_p1 and everything builds/links/works fine (daily use with cyrus-imapd). Just curious since the latest bdb release is 4.7.25 and contains the usual set of scary-sounding bugfixes.

http://svn.python.org/view/python/trunk/setup.py?rev=63742&r1=63718&r2=63742 suggests that Berkeley DB 4.6 is stable only on x86, amd64 and ia64.
