It seems you have built cyrus-sasl against a different Berkeley DB library.

No need for that. Just put the DB3 includes under the /usr/include/db3
directory and give the configure script the "--with-dbdir=/usr" parameter.
Although I'd prefer using /usr/local and leaving /usr alone...

On AIX, you can link Cyrus SASL and IMAPD with different shared DB libraries
because the dependencies are hardcoded into the libraries. On systems using
run-time linking by default you are asking for trouble if you do this.
