+- Update to version 5.3.0
+  * Support Berkeley DB 5.3.x.
+  * Drop support for Berkeley DB 4.2 and Python 2.3. Our reference 
+    is Red Had Enterprise Linux 5, until march 2014. After that, 
+    RHEL6 has Python 2.6 and BDB 4.7.
+    * According to 
+      http://superuser.com/questions/189931/python-and-berkeley-db-versions-in-redhat-enterprise-linux-3-4-5-and-upcoming-6:
+      * RHEL3: Python 2.2.3, BDB 4.1.25
+      * RHEL4: Python 2.3.4, BDB 4.2.52
+      * RHEL5: Python 2.4.3, BDB 4.3.29
+      * RHEL6: Python 2.6.2, BDB 4.7.25
+  * Support for "DBEnv->set_intermediate_dir()", available in
+    Berkeley DB 4.3-4.6.  Patch by Garret Cooper.
+  * Support for "DB->set_dup_compare()".  Original patches by
+    Nikita M. Kozlovsky and Ben Schmeckpeper.
+  * Fixed a testsuite compatibility problem with BDB 5.2.
+  * If we are running Solaris or derivatives, and 64bit python,
+    try to find the library under "/usr/local/Berkeley.*.*/64/".
+  * Solaris 10 Update 10 exposes a very old race condition in the 
+    replication master election tests. Some details in 
+    https://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=9902860 .
+    Workaround proposed in a private email from Paula Bingham (Oracle),
+    in 20110929.
+  * When doing the full matrix test for a release, stop the verification
+    if any test failed.
