BerkeleyDB

How do we feel about adding dependecies to BerkeleyDB in the core? I  
know we talked about it before, but as we are talking about moving to  
Maven we won't be bundling any libraries. Does that help?

I use it in the heirarchial cluster and in the LUCENE-626  
"reinforcement learning" spell checker. Both of these could be popped  
in the trunk if BDB was not a problem.

One alternative is that I made some abstract implementation and then a  
contrib-module with BDB bindings.

Yeah, I think it's fine by me.

That usually is the best way to do these things anyway.
