Help! config error on gdbm LDBM on Solaris 7.

[Chris Huff <chuff@kazootek.com>]

Hi. I need to install openldap on Solaris 7 so I can use it with php. I am
going to use GNU gdbm as the LDBM. The install of gdbm was done with solaris
package gdbm-1.7.3-sol7-intel-local.gz (the source would not "make
install"). Now when I try to configure openldap it complains when looking
for a "suitable LDBM backend" even though I have it installed. Here is my
configure script that I put together with help form the faq-o-matic..

-------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/sh
env ac_cv_func_pthread_create=no \
    ol_cv_kthread_flag=no ol_cv_pthread_flag=no \
    ol_cv_pthreads_flag=no \
    ol_cv_thread_flag=no \
    CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include" \
    LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib" \
    ./configure --with-ldbm-api=gdbm --without-threads

Please help me out. I have to prove to my boss that I can do this. If im
just using openldap for php functions is there a simple way to install
openldap??
