db3.3.11 on FreeBSD

Problem -- on FreeBSD 4.x, there are two ports of db3:
/usr/ports/databases/db3 and /usr/ports/db3-latest.

The former builds and installs 3.2.9 into

     /usr/local/include/db3/db.h
     /usr/local/lib/libdb.so

The latter builds and installs 3.3.11 into

     /usr/local/include/db3/db.h
     /usr/local/lib/libdb3.so

Our current ac-helpers/berkeley-db.m4 program is unable to detect the
latter, because I *think* it's searching for -ldb instead of -ldb3.
I'm not up for increasing the complexity of this script right now.
Maybe jimb has an idea, but it's not mission-critical right now. For
now, FreeBSD users can just build by unpacking db-3.3.11 directly into
the subversion tree (thanks to Mo's patch.)

Hmmm, maybe this should filed as an issue.

I have a fever, and am going back to bed. :-)
