Well, to follow up, I just built praliases with the following Makefile 
(from a September 21 source tree):

#       @(#)Makefile    8.1 (Berkeley) 6/7/93

PROG=   praliases
CFLAGS+=-I${.CURDIR}/../src
DPADD=  ${LIBDBM}
NOMAN=  noman

.include "../../Makefile.inc"
.include <bsd.prog.mk>

No errors.  Note it doesn't require linking against libdbm.a, and 
presumably, if ${LIBDBM} isn't defined, the dependency isn't added...
