You might consider SQLite. I've never used it so I can't recommend it 
per se, but it is closer to Metakit in that you can open files yourself 
for databases, rather than having to use the system DB.

(I would imagine PyCS would still want MySQL or Postgres, truthfully, 
but it is worth a look. PyDS might be a better fit with SQLite. I *like* 
being able to backup my PyDS just by shutting it down and copying some 
files. I think SQLite should retain that, it isn't so easy for MySQL.)
