Have you looked at Movable Type [movabletype.org]?
It's Perl and it supports Berkeley DB.

  I don't think it's quite what I'm looking for though...
  
  MT is focussed on blogs, whereas I really want a dumbed down slashdot with better support for "proper" articles. Actually something more like what XML.com has - articles plus a place for comments at the end.

    MT can do this. It's pretty flexible, instead of thinking about a blog entry, think article. You can do some pretty clever things with the templates.
    The only thing I don't think you could do easily (though you could write a plugin) would be articles over multiple pages.

    MovableType [movabletype.org] is hugely flexible. Here are a few examples MT being used to display articles...
    WDIK:library [whatdoiknow.org]
    Boxes and Arrows [boxesandarrows.com]
    The Morning News [themorningnews.org]
    nistudents.org...a site I am working on [nistudents.org]
    Also since a plugin architecture is now available many plugins have been developed... MovableType plugins [movabletype.org]
