Where oh where has my Berkeley DB gone? (Issue 544)

Any configure hackers out there want to take a crack at this? I've
verified that it's not just me having this problem. Filed as issue #544

Scenario:

- Download Berkeley DB 3.3.11, untar and move it to subversion/db
- cd db/build_unix
- run ../dist/configure && make && make install
- cd back into the subversion build root
- run the following:

    ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode --disable-shared \
                --with-berkeley-db=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.3

configure then gives me this line:

    checking for Berkeley DB in /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.3... no

I *know* it's there, so I check:

    pantheon:~$ ls /usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.3
    bin docs include lib

It turns out that the workaround for this is to not use the
--with-berkeley-db option at all:

    ./configure --enable-maintainer-mode --disable-shared

works OK. So I'm guessing that right now you can only build with
Berkeley DB if you've got it in your subversion source directory
