Comment (by grahamperrin at gmail.com):

 Mac OS X 10.4.11, Intel MacBook Pro.

 /usr/local/include/db.h[[BR]]
 exists prior to installation

 In IRC, afb observes:

 > having old readline in `/usr/local` is another favorite pastime

 and recommends:

  1. set aside db.h
  2. build db44
  3. restore db.h to its original path
