Actually, it turns out that gdbm was previously installed by another
package.  Perhaps the configure script saw that?  Unfortunately, it
didn't include $(PREFIX)/include, so the compile failed.  I wonder if
the configure script should be told to always use the native NetBSD db
library.  I suspect that the compile will fail otherwise, if gdbm was
installed beforehand.

Cheers,
