Well, that example code looked like it should have worked on Biopython 
1.43 so I am a little puzzled.  I don't know if anyone else is using 
NetBSD with Biopython, but the import problem could be some sort of 
installation problem.  This is why I was asking about how and where you 
installed Biopython (i.e. did you install from source?)

If you do try Biopython 1.44, watch out for bug 2393, we managed to 
break Bio.GenBank.NCBIDictionary - on the bright side its a one line 
fix: http://bugzilla.open-bio.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2393
