The configure script automatically checks for dbm_open in -lgdbm, -ldb,
-lc, and -ldbm; in that order.  If more than one of these are available,
there doesn't seem to be any way to force configure to choose (or ignore)
a specific one - it always takes the first one found.

In my case, I have both gdbm and SleepyCat db-2 installed in addition
to the dbm implementation in libc.  Configure insists on choosing gdbm
over db-2.
