One suggestion is to
  rm -rf config.cache
between configure runs. It seems that you are just getting the results of
the first run each time as they are still cached. (the db changing to yes
is a bit strange though)

The other option to look at is using the following configure options
  --with-dbdir=DIR        Berkeley DB files are in prefix DIR
  --with-bdb-libdir=DIR   Berkeley DB lib files are in DIR
  --with-bdb-incdir=DIR   Berkeley DB include files are in DIR

Cheers,
