Does anyone know if dbopen(3) supports concurrent write access.

Looking at the source code, the man page has the section about using
DB_LOCK and DB_SHMEM commented out.  looking at the code quickly does
seem to indicate that DB_SHMEM is a NOOP.  There is a some code
associated with DB_LOCK, but ultimately it also appears to be a
NOOP.  

Assumming it is not possible to do concurrent writes, it would be nice to
see this indicated in the bugs section of the man page. (-:
