It might, as long as you make sure not to conflict with the 5.x install.
As long as you build and install into /usr/local/ instead of /usr, that should 
be no problem.

The long term solution, of course, is to get Xastir working properly with 5.x.
If anyone cares to help...

This is where FreeBSD pulls bdb42 for its "db42" package.
