Bad database configuration tests in 21.0
I can't configure XEmacs 21.0 using the latest CVS sources; here's the tail
of running this configure command:
/home/acs/cvsroot/XEmacs-21.0/xemacs/configure \
--prefix=/usr/local/${PWD:t} --with-gcc \
--site-includes=/usr/local/include \
--site-libraries=/usr/local/lib \
--site-runtime-libraries=/usr/local/lib \
--infopath=/usr/local/info --with-mule=no \
'--cflags=-O3 -pipe -march=pentiumpro -ffast-math' \
--with-dialogs=no:
checking for Gpm_Open in -lgpm... yes
Defining HAVE_GPM
xemacs will be linked with "gpmevent.o"
Prepending "-lgpm" to $LIBS
xemacs will be linked with "event-unixoid.o"

Here is the rather unhelpful tail of config.log:

configure:10937: checking for database support
Martin, it appears you recently made some changes to configure; I think they
broke my setup. I've appended a copy of Installation.el generated from
xemacs-21.0. As you can see, I have both Berkeley DB and GNU DBM support on
my system.
