You were asking for a reproducer, I've provided one.

The issue applies to both db53 & db60, so whichever being used isn't really relevant.

From what I can see, the issue seems to only be triggered when having a large enough rpmdb (which is what I suspect why it is that you cannot reproduce the issue easily with buildbots), hence why I provided a copy of mine and a sample package to test with in order to reproduce the issue.
AFAIK it shouldn't be dependent on mandriva specific rpm package.

Whether there's a bug in rpm or bdb isn't really that relevant to the matter, it's still a blocker bug for using > db52 with rpm that needs to be fixed (wherever) regardless of..

The workaround provided by Mark Hatle at http://rpm5.org/community/rpm-devel/5393.html seems to be working though.

Dunno what more information or anything that I can provide...
