	I tried:

CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/BerkeleyDB/include \
LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/BerkeleyDB/lib \

Same error:
slapd[22000]: ldbm_db_errcall(): ==> illegal flag specified to db_appinit
slapd[22000]: ldbm_initialize(): FATAL error in db_appinit() : Invalid
argument  

	The LDFLAGS should take priority, correct?
