I installed RedHat6.0 full, then downloaded php4.0b1.
After that, got to the php directory and typed:

# ./configure --with-dbase --enable-track-vars
(during the ./configure a message shows that gdbm was detected, and
chosen)
# make all
# make install
(php is copied into /usr/local/bin)
after that I typed:
# /usr/local/bin/php
<?
	$fh=dbmopen("test.dbm", "c");
	dbmclose($fh);
?>
^D
and got:
Content-Type: text/html

<b>Fatal error</b>:  Call to undefined function:  dbmopen() in <b>-</b> on line <b>2</b><br>

They are still accessible via the "dba" extension.

The GDBM module has been commented out, presumably because we are supposed to migrate to the more generic dba interface
from dbm/gdbm/ndbm.

Use DBA instead:
