If you are actually committed to improve pybsddb, I would recommend you
to install all 4.* Berkeley DB versions (they are installed in their own
directory, so you can install all of them at the same time).

You can install several python versions at the same time, compiling by
hand and doing a "make altinstall".

These particular features are a bit more difficult because, I think, you
need to mess with python slots to implement magic methods like __contains__.

But if you want to give a hand, there are a lot of low-hanging fruits
waiting to be done. Too much to do, so little time...
