I thought about this for a minute.  I build both sendmail (8.14.1) and
Berkeleydb (4.6.19) with Sun's Studio 11 C compiler.  I was building
milter-greylist with gcc 4.2.  Maybe not a bright idea to mix compilers.
I have rebuilt and reinstalled milter-greylist with Sun C.  The make
output, and the configure script, are attached.  There are some minor
compile complaints.

I'll have to read the acc manpages to figure out how to do a 64 bit
compile.

BTW, how come the database isn't a real db?  I realized this when I
did an ldd and didn't see that BerkeleyDB was linked in?  I guess 
milter-greylist is standalone and maybe compiler mixing is not an
issue...
