Just confirming what brane said above is the reason why I did not try
to just build detection of BDB into our configure system. Figuring
out if it's safe to link to some BDB that we find ourselves is
actually really hard. If we could ask APR-Util what version of BDB it
was built against it might be easier, but there's no way to query
that, it only says if BDB is available or not.
