The official word from Sleepycat is that it's much better to statically
link against a known version of BDB that you ship with your package.  This
is one of the first things they mentioned in the recently created
berkeley-db newsgroup.

Evolution now ships with a specific BDB, as does nvi, to give two examples
of packages that follow this policy.
