Hmmm, second one today. The problem is apparently that Perl was built
with a library that is no longer available on your system. Or, more
accurately, Perl's Configure script deemed that the "db" library is
necessary to build Perl extensions on your system; the build
instructions for spamc use Perl's idea of what libraries are needed for
Perl extensions, even though spamc is a standalone C program and not a
Perl extension.
It should be safe to edit your Makefile and remove the "-ldb" reference,
although this is a kludge. There's something wrong either with your
Perl build or with SA's Makefile.PL.
