>>> db = bsddb.btopen("/tmp/n")
>>> for i in range(5):
	db[str(i)] = None
>>> db
{'1': '', '0': '', '3': '', '2': '', '4': ''}
>>> for k in db.iterkeys():
	print k
	del db[k]
0
>>> 

The Python "dict" object raises a RuntimeError when modifying the
dictionary during iteration, the database should do the same.

Fixed in trunk r63617.

Fix issue2669: bsddb simple/legacy interface iteration silently fails
when database changes size during iteration.

It now behaves like a dictionary, the next attempt to get a value from
the iterator after the database has changed size will raise a RuntimeError.
