USE_GDBM is available only in the latest alpha (3.952). I presume you
have that. As well as setting it, you also need to set up the relevant
include and library references, as for any DBM library. For example, on
my Solaris system I tested with:

USE_GDBM=YES
INCLUDE=-I/opt/local/include/gdbm
DBMLIB=-R/opt/local/lib -L/opt/local/lib -lgdbm

because I have the gdbm include file (gdbm.h) in /opt/local/include/gdbm,
and the library in /opt/local/lib.
