There's a DB_CONFIG in the DB directory and another in the PTree
directory. I don't remember at which point I copied them in - I
possibly didn't clean the environment afterwards.

I'm using the version that ships with Debian Wheezy (testing), which
at the moment has the version number libdb5.1.29-5
I'm not sure how that relates to upstream and what patches may have
been applied.

The issue is in the Debian bug tracking system :

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=699848

I presume they would have reported any bugs back upstream.

Considering that the machines I use as "servers" are Pentium P4
machines, that between them host mail, web, ftp, ssh & sks services -
I'm impressed that they handled the workload as well as they did.

(I don't expect either machine to last very much longer and am in the
process of investigating the best way to replace them)
