In dumbdbm.py 2.15, support for a mode argument was
added. However, this support does not work: The mode
argument is passed to __builtin__.open, which does not
support specification of a mode. Instead, the third
argument to that function specifies the buffer size.

I have what I think is a correct patch, but I should be able
to simplify it (related to handling the umask).  Untested on
Windows.

Fred, do you still have the patch you mention?  I've worked up a patch, but it must be simpler; I don't do anything with the umask.

Sorry, my patch is long gone.  :-(

Fix committed in rev. 53141.  Leaving open while I look at umask stuff a bit.

Change committed for the umask stuff; I'll see how the buildbots react.

Closing this bug.
