> Description:
Recently, the databases/db4 port was senselessly updated from 4.0.14 to 4.1.25.
SleepyCat changed some APIs (function arguments) from 4.0 to 4.1, but not all
applications are ready to deal with bdb-4.1.

Trying to build cfengine2 for instance fails since the db4 update:

make  all-am
source='misc.c' object='misc.o' libtool=no  depfile='.deps/misc.Po' \
tmpdepfile='.deps/misc.TPo'  depmode=gcc /bin/sh ../depcomp  cc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. \
-I. -I. -I/usr/local/include/db4 -I/usr/include     -g -O2 -Wreturn-type \
-Wmissing-prototypes -Wuninitialized -O -pipe -march=i486 -DNO_IDEA \
-I/usr/local/include/db4 -pthread -D_THREAD_SAFE -DBUILDTIN_GCC_THREAD -c `test -f \
misc.c || echo './'`misc.c In file included from cf.defs.h:153,
                 from misc.c:33:
/usr/include/malloc.h:2: warning: #warning "this file includes <malloc.h> which is \
                deprecated, use <stdlib.h> instead"
misc.c: In function `ChecksumChanged':
misc.c:273: warning: passing arg 2 of pointer to function from incompatible pointer \
type misc.c:273: warning: passing arg 4 of pointer to function makes pointer from \
integer without a cast misc.c:273: too few arguments to function
*** Error code 1

	
> How-To-Repeat:
	
> Fix:
1. please revert the change, and fix the broken compat285 argument to 185.
2. please move db 4.1 to a new port.
