If you reuse an environment/db handle in multiple threads, you *MUST*
open them with the DB_THREAD flag. You could open a new environment/db
handle per thread, nevertheless.

The hang you are seeing in this case (DB_THREAD) would be a bug in
Berkeley DB. What version are you using?. Some releases of 4.6.* are
very buggy. Try last build, 4.6.21.

Please, post your results.
