Thanks for the above.

BTW, to get the _dbm module to build I had to change 3.1-dbm.patch as
follows:

@@ -1077,6 +1077,8 @@
                         if self.compiler.find_library_file(lib_dirs,
                                                                'ndbm'):
                             ndbm_libs = ['ndbm']
+                        elif self.compiler.find_library_file(lib_dirs, 'gdbm_compat'):
+                            ndbm_libs = ['gdbm_compat']
                         else:
                             ndbm_libs = []
                         print("building dbm using ndbm")

Additionally, I removed --with-dbmliborder=gdbm from CYGCONF_ARGS.

Note that the above changes make the 3.2 _dbm build more like the 2.6
one.  Did the _dbm module build for you with your python3-3.2.3-1.cygport
script?  It didn't when I tried it.  Is the above approach OK?  Or, can
you think of a better way?

Thanks,
Jason
