checking for db_create in RH9

Hi. I have RedHat 9 and I'm trying to install cyrus-imapd.
I've read the docs and I've followed the steps. But when
I try to compile it complains:

...
checking for db_create in -ldb30... no
checking for db_create in -ldb3... no
checking for db_create in -ldb... no
checking for db_open in -ldb... no
configure: error: this version requires Berkeley DB 3.x or later.

I downloaded db4 source rpm, patched the spec and rebuilt it.
Now I have db4,db4-utils and db4-devel 4.0.14-20_nonptl.
But when I try to compile cyrus-imapd-2.1.16-6.src.rpm it
looks it can't find db. I made sure the lib is somewhere:
/usr/lib/libdb-4.0.a , /lib/libdb-4.0.so.

I've searched this in the mailing list archives and I've
found similar problems but I still can't manage to solve it.

Is there something I am missing ?
thank you very much
