I'm finding the same problem compiling under MacOS 10.1.3.  I've installed
Berkeley db with fink, which likes to install things under /sw/.  MacOS X
has a /usr/include/db.h - which appears to be an older 1.something version,
and while the include file is there, I note that there isn't any libdb
in /usr/lib.

from "fink list" here's the version of Berkeley db installed:

  i      db41    4.1.25-15       Berkeley DB embedded database - non crypto

This didn't quite seem to do the trick - and I'm pretty sure was redundant,
since /sw...  was already there, from other checks that happen.

Here is what I used for "configure" which picked up the right db.h and libdb:

./configure LDFLAGS="-L/sw/lib -ldb" CPPFLAGS="-I/sw/include" \
--with-bdb-incdir=/sw/include/db4 --with-bdb-libdir=/sw/lib
