does specifying --with-db-includes=/path/to/db/includes 
--with-db-lib=/path/to/db/library work with your version of bdb 4.1?

That is perhaps the case. However, before I amend the error message, I would 
appreciate it if you could confirm that configure fails with 4.1 and works 
with a newer version. version 4.2 perhaps? If you don't have time, or don't

I will fix the configure script later to report the correct results.

Thanks for pointing this out. I guess you're probably the first to notice 
this, since I've not seen any other posts about it.
