My mistake, sorry. The build just worked because libgnome-dev depends
on libdb3-dev. But gnucash itself indeed uses Berkeley DB (e.g. in
'src/gnome-utils/window-help.c'.

So it is not as easy as I thought to get rid of the 
dependency or to upgrade to a newer version of Berkeley DB,
at least not without also changing something in 'libgnome-dev'.
