Ned Deily <n...@acm.org> added the comment:

Niklas, the Python 2 and 3 binaries for Mac OS X provided by the python.org 
installers are not built with support for gdbm, nor are the Apple-supplied 
system Pythons; Apple does not ship gdbm with OS X.  So you can't open a shelve 
file created in another Python that does use gdbm.
