all i see in configure.in (i'm talking about 1.1RC2) is:
    dnl --------------
    dnl CHECK FOR NDBM
    dnl --------------
    dnl Checks for ndbm
    AC_CHECK_FUNC(dbm_open, ,
      AC_CHECK_LIB(ndbm, dbm_open, ,
        AC_CHECK_LIB(dbm, dbm_open)))

    dnl ----------------
    dnl CHECK FOR NDBM.H
    dnl ----------------
    AC_CHECK_HEADERS(db1/ndbm.h)

should there be more?

our redhat 9 systems seem to rely on libgdbm, and /usr/include/gdbm.h
and /usr/include/gdbm/ndbm.h.
