I'm having problems installing openldap over Berkeley DB (Sleepy Cat)

After I installed the Berkeley DB and set the appropriate system flags by
running:

export CPPFLAGS="-l/usr/local/BerkeleyDB/include
export LDFLAGS ="-L/usr/local/BerkeleyDB/include

I proceeded in running, "./configure --with-ldbm-api=berkeley"

Its going through and checking; it seems to be mising, makeinfo, gawk, and
gnutar. 
And it ends with:

checking whether the C compiler 
(cc -l/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.0/include-L//usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.0/lib/)works..no

configure error: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot
create executables.

any suggestions why it doesnt compile?

thanks for your input.....
