Support in PHP for Berkeley DB databases.  Mostly because
apache looks in them for authenication purposes and php 
cannot read/write them.

PHP3 does support the Berkeley db library, but it
prefers the GDBM library if it is installed. You
can force it to use the Berkeley db library by
editing the config.cache file and make sure this
line says 'no' instead of 'yes':

ac_cv_lib_gdbm_gdbm_open=${ac_cv_lib_gdbm_gdbm_open=no}

(Yes, this is a hack. Eventually someone will make it
possible to specify your preference on the configure
command line.)

To have a more flexible selection for DBM databases is on the TODO
list
