I am trying to build and install this without super-user privileges.
I had installed gdbm (also without super-user) in a non-standard path mypath
gdbm.h is in mypath/include

I then use
export CPPFLAGS="-I<mypath>/inlude"
./configure ... all other options

when configure reaches point where it checks for presence of gdbm.h, it is
unable to find it and fails.

I may be wrong, but I believe the reason for this is that your configtest.c
uses

#include <gdbm.h>

whereas it should probably use

#include "gdbm.h"
