Small patch from Steven Taschuk to work around buggy dbm
implementations which have non-idempotent len() functions, so that
the test `if db' doesn't return the same result every time (!). By
explicitly testing whether db is None rather than returning false if
db is non-None but inexplicably returns zero from len(), we avoid
the problem in favour of the semantics I actually intended.
