Comment (by ryandesign@…):

 To provide some commentary on your changes:

  * You removed the --enable-db-upgrade configure arg; the ChangeLog
 confirms that the legacy ncdc-db-upgrade utility that this configure arg
 built was removed in 1.14.
  * You removed the gdbm dependency; the ChangeLog doesn't mention this but
 examining my ncdc 1.12 installation I see gdbm was only used by the old
 ncdc-db-upgrade utility.
  * You removed the libxml2 dependency; the ChangeLog confirms libxml2
 usage was dropped in 1.11 so we should have already removed this
 dependency.
  * You added the zlib dependency; the ChangeLog confirms this became
 required in 1.13. It had been there indirectly via libxml2 before.
  * You removed the block that prevented installation on Leopard and older;
 according to #31990 we added that because ncdc's use of realpath()
 required Snow Leopard or newer, and according to the ChangeLog they no
 longer use realpath() as of 1.13. I verified that 1.12 crashed on Leopard
 and 1.15 runs fine. Great!

 Committed your patch in r103790.
