Perl 5.6.0 seems to need the Berkeley DB package, albeit version 1 seems to 
suffice... but the Berkeley DB package needs Perl...  thus a circular 
dependency: build the DB version 1 package, install; build Perl, install; 
then build the DB 3 package using the just installed Perl, install the DB3 
package; then build Perl and install it with the DB3 support; then build 
and install DB3 again with the new Perl? After that, build and install the 
Perl package?  Ad infinitum...  Where should I stop building?
