db4 problems configuring on FreeBSD
After two weeks with an out-of-date working copy, I tried to update to
the latest httpd-2.0/apr/apr-utils/svn.
On FreeBSD, -ldb4 is in /usr/local/lib, and db.h is in
/usr/local/include/db4. The apr-utils configure finds these just fine,
but when the svn configure tries to verify the availability of db4, the
#include "db.h" in the test gets the wrong include file
(/usr/include/db.h, from db 1.85). Either the svn check ought to be
trying "db4/db.h", or apr-config --includes ought to include
/usr/local/include/db4.
According to the (out of date) comments in
build/ac-macros/berkeley-db.m4, there used to be checks to handle this
case, but they must have been removed when the check for db4 was moved
to apr-utils.

The obvious: win32 breakage... Need to figure out how to handle that
case. Especially since APR-UTIL doesn't seem to be built with db4
support on win32 (in the svn tree). I may be missing something at
this hour though...

That sounds reasonable to me... so what am I overlooking? Why is that
a bad idea?

The latter is rather difficult to do. db4/db.h could be in any of the
available include paths.
Rather, we should include apu.h instead of db.h. That would solve the
problem. Not sure how that is received though...
Thoughts?
