New fix for DB 1.85...

There still is a subtle bug in db-1.85 which makes it dump core in
very rare circumstances. It occured to me when indexing all manual
pages on my box. At a certain point around the 6000th manual the BTREE
STORE() dumps core. Keith Bostic did fix it (see below) (Thanks again
Keith). Would someone put the patch or the patched db-1.85 on CPAN?
