Fixed recno support (keys are integers rather than strings).
Work around DB bug that cause stdin to be closed by rnopen() when the
DB file needed to exist but did not (no longer segfaults).
This closes SF tracker patch #403445.
Also wrapped some long lines and added whitespace around operators -- FLD.
Update the build structures to automatically detect the presence of BSD db,
including the proper name of the header file to include. Has all the
expected niceties associated with yet-more-configure-options. ;)
This checkin includes changes for non-generated files only; subsequent
checkin will catch those.
This is part of SourceForge patch #101272.

(This is not exactly what Vladimir posted to the patches list; I've
made a few changes, and Vladimir sent me a fix in private email for a
problem that only occurs in debug mode. I'm also holding back on his
change to main.c, which seems unnecessary to me.)
(1) Use PyErr_NewException("module.class", NULL, NULL) to create the
exception object.
(2) Remove all calls to Py_FatalError(); instead, return or
ignore the errors -- the import code now checks PyErr_Occurred()
after calling a module's init function, so it's no longer a
fatal error for the initialization to fail.
Also did some small cleanups, e.g. removed unnecessary test for
"already initialized" from initfpectl(), and unified
initposix()/initnt().
I haven't checked this very thoroughly, so while the changes are
pretty trivial -- beware of untested code!
