Subject: Once db2.0 is released, support OS's native DB library
X-Send-Pr-Version: 3.99
System: SunOS portnoy 5.4 Generic_101945-37 sun4m sparc
mycroft argues that we should not require our version of the db library be used
on operating systems with a compatible db library.
Currently, this is a non-issue as no such OS exists. However,
especially if we want BSD4.4 based operating systems to be able to integrate
krb5, the OS vendors may wish to be able to have this functionality.
Either provide a configure-time option or attempt to auto-detect;
I like a manual option as I don't think we will ever be able to prove compatability.
