Bug description:

dbm backends were previously thread safe, but I think dbm.sqlite introduced in https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/114481 is not.

I am not sure if the resolution should be to add a doc comment to shelve/dbm or some other way to fix it, say specifying a preferred backend or multithreading argument in shelve.open as an argument. (Or if there is a way to fix this in dbm.sqlite itself)

Example code:

from concurrent.futures import ThreadPoolExecutor
import shelve

CACHE = shelve.open('test')

def check_set_cache(value):
    if 'value' in CACHE:
        print(CACHE['value'])
    CACHE['value'] = value
    return CACHE['value']

jobs = list(range(1, 100))
executor = ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=5)
entries = list(executor.map(check_set_cache, jobs))
print(entries)
