Replicated with ./configure --with-gdbm=/opt/gnu 

and where you don't have gdgm.h on an include path that 
gcc would pickup by default. 
 
When checking out where gdgm.h is
checking for gdbm.h... no
Try /usr/local/include/gdbm.h
checking for /usr/local/include/gdbm.h... no
Try /opt/local/include/gdbm.h
checking for /opt/local/include/gdbm.h... no
Try /usr/pkg/include/gdbm.h
checking for /usr/pkg/include/gdbm.h... no
Giving up - You need to install gdbm.h somewhere

Shouldn't configure also have used the argument given to
the --with-gdbm option, as it does for other packages?

Please verify that it?s still happening using the latest version of PHP (release 4.0.1pl2 or CVS).

user feedback: still appearing

Fixed in PHP4.0.3RC2. 
DB extension is no longer enabled by default and using --with-gdbm is preferred.
