BerkeleyDB 3.3 through 4.5 are supported.  4.6 support has been checked
in and 4.7 (not yet released) support is supposedly on its way from
someone at oracle.

Versions older than 3.3 are too difficult (and too buggy) to support. 
You're on your own if you want to use them.

Yes there are many lines of legacy code in _bsddb.c that have the old
3.1 and 3.2 feature ifdefs.  Cleaning them up is very low priority and
would just interfere with other peoples patches.  They will be cleaned
up out of the _bsddb.c module in the python 3000 branch.
