RE: [BUG FIXES] backend-bdb with subdirs segfault (ITS#2371)



I have committed a fix to CVS HEAD. Note that it is unnecessary to compile
the BDB_SUBDIRS code though; you can control the subdirectory behavior just
by using a DB_CONFIG file in your database home directory, and this is the
preferred mechanism for configuring these types of options. See the SleepyCat
documentation for more info. (set_lg_dir, set_data_dir, set_tmp_dir keywords)
