If you're compiling Berkeley on Solaris, I have found that you need to 
specifically give a "prefix=" option.  Then, for safe keeping, specify 
the "include" and "lib" paths from this prefix in your CPPFLAGS and 
LDFLAGS environment variables.  I tried the default Berkeley compilation 
(which installs in "/usr/local/BerkeleyDBx"), which didn't appear to 
work for me.
