Ok - now fixed. Here's the commit message that explains the problem.
It's not a perfect fix, but will be ok under the circumstances.

Jeremy.

Don't core dump when using spinlocks on a read-only tdb. Unfortunately this
means that a read-write opener and a read-only opener are using different
locking mechanisms - this needs to be addressed, but it's hard as the
read-write opener using the spinlocks is usually first, so there's no
way to force them to change down to the fcntl method.
Read only access is less important anyway and can never corrupt the
tdb anyway, so errors in read-only record reads are more tolerable.
