RedHat 4.1 ships with both libdb.so.1.85.1 and libdb.so.2.0.0; the
former is an *old* AOUT library, whereas the latter is the current ELF
library. Therefore, it appears that the binary kit should either use
libdb.so.2.0.0 or alternatively link this library statically, if you
suspect other distributions to be confused about version numbers.
