Wow. Thanks!

It worked fine with the following in my (tcsh) environment:

setenv CC gcc
setenv CFLAGS "-O -g"
setenv CPPFLAGS "-I/usr/local/include"
setenv LDFLAGS "-L/usr/local/lib"
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH "/usr/local/lib"
setenv ol_cv_db_db_4_dot_3 no

I understand Kurt's reasoning, but if BDB 4.2.52 is still preferred over 
4.3 for OpenLDAP installs, I personally would side with Walter on 
redoing the way configure finds this particular library.

By strange coincidence, ITS#3909 might be the same issue, although it's 
not worded well enough to say.

Thanks again.
