You should check to see if your package has the two official patches from
sleepycat:

http://www.sleepycat.com/webforms/patchdl.php?src=patch.4.1.25.1
http://www.sleepycat.com/webforms/patchdl.php?src=patch.4.1.25.2


Other than that, you may need to tune your DB_CONFIG file to get rid of those locking

They were originally written for OpenLDAP, but apply to everything that uses BDB.
