Subversion officially recommends the use of Berkeley DB 4.0.14, however
a couple of people (including myself) are successfully using a db 4.1.xx
(xx=25 in my case) - with no problems I should add. All I had to do to
get it to work, was add the option

--with-berkeley-db=/path/to/BerkeleyDB.4.1

to configure (and the corresponding lines to the apache config as well,
if you are planning on using dav). I guess you already did that, as you
seem to have found the --help option.

If that did not work for you, you might have to tell us a little more
about your environment, at least what version of Subversion you are
using on what operating system, and how exactly the configure script
errors out...
