It looks good on my eeepc:

        # makeblastdb -blastdb_version 4 -dbtype nucl \
        -in GenBank/NC_005816.fna -parse_seqids -hash_index \
        -max_file_sz 20MB  -taxid 10

        New DB name:   /tmp/python-biopython/Tests/GenBank/NC_005816.fna
        New DB title:  GenBank/NC_005816.fna
        Sequence type: Nucleotide
        Keep MBits: T

        # _

And no need for PAE.  :)
Thank you for the workaround!
Thanks Andreas for the forward!
Let's squash that bug.
Cheers everyone,
