Following your advice, I found it was because the Berkeley DB library
could not be found, even though it was specified with 

env "LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.1/lib"  ./configure

After I added -R/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.1/lib things started to work.

Another thing is that re-untarring does not work well after the package
was untarred before: it can't "create" the "data" directory since it is
already there, and then will not overwrite files in it.

Thanks for your help.
