Hello,

i found only one way to build the port in www/apache21 with db support:

adding a symlink 

libdb1.so -> libc.so.4 in usr/lib. After this i was able to patch
Makefile.modules to use libdb1 (alias libc).

I know i could dive into autoconf hell for apache-2.0.47, where db
support worked, but maybe someone has already more insight. 

Btw. the problem with newer db versions (3,4,4.1 ...) is that dbmmanage
perl script does not work with them.

Greetings
