I just switched to latest and greatest of 3.23 tree from the 
greatest of the 3.22 tree...so far so good....even updating the working 
server was easy.  It's fantastic for medium size web sites....I haven't 
played with the Berkeley DB transactions yet.
http://www.mysql.com/doc/B/D/BDB.html

here are some excerpts:

'Berkeley DB (http://www.sleepycat.com) has provided MySQL with a 
transaction-safe table handler. This will survive crashes and also provides 
COMMIT and ROLLBACK on transactions. In order to build MySQL Version 3.23.x 
(BDB support first appeared in Version 3.23.15) with support for BDB 
tables, you will need Berkeley DB Version 3.2.3h or newer which can be 
downloaded from http://www.mysql.com/downloads/mysql-3.23.html. This is a 
patched version of Berkeley DB that is only available from MySQL; the 
standard Berkeley DB will not yet work with MySQL'.

Source for DB stuff is at:
