>Description:

If you set 

   BDB_DEFAULT=db4
   BDB_ACCEPTED=db4

in /etc/mk.conf, ocaml bombs out because it seems to be including
more than one different ndbm compatibility header at once.

>How-To-Repeat:

set as above, build.

>Fix:

The following hack can be used as a workaround. A real fix involves
fiddling with autoconf, which at the moment I don't have the energy
for. (I also question the patch that makes both branches of that #if
use <ndbm.h>...)
