I highly recommend using BDB 4.2.52 + patches instead of BDB 4.3.21 in 
general, and especially with Solaris.  It is at *least* 10% slower on 
Solaris when configured the same way as 4.2.  It is also very buggy, and on 
Solaris it links against -lrt, which means you need to pass in extra 
parameters to configure for OpenLDAP that everyone who has answered you has 
missed if you want it to compile.
