compiling against specific libdb

Hello,

I'm compiling cyrus on Debian etch.
libdb4.3 and libdb4.4, libdb4.3-dev packages are installed.

If I understand the configure script correctly it tries to find the 
highest available libdb installed on the system.

In this case that is libdb4.4.

However I want to compile against 4.3, because we are using libdb4.3 on 
sarge, and I want to do the upgrade to etch, but keeping libdb4.3

I can't find a way to tell cyrus to compile against 4.3.  Unless I edit 
the configure script to first try libdb4.3.

I don't have any experience with autoconf so I'm a bit lost...

Can anybody shed in light on this for me?

Thank you,
