Tried adding 4.4 to this line and ended up with:

./configure --prefix=/disk/mapserverdb/redland --with-/lib 
--with-bdb-include=/disk/mapserverdb/bdb/include 
--with-bdb=/disk/mapserverdb/bdb

Also, I tried specifying bdb-name with 4.1 as follows:

[path]
/disk/mapserverdb/postgresql/bin:/disk/mapserver/php5/bin:/disk/mapserverdb/bdb/bin:...

[ld_library_path (is this being used?)]
mapserve:~/db/source/redland-1.0.3:513 > echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/disk/mapserverdb/bdb/lib:/disk/mapserverdb/postgresql/lib:...


[contents of bdb lib directory]
mapserve:~/db/source/redland-1.0.3:497 > ls /disk/mapserverdb/bdb/lib
libdb-4.1.a  libdb-4.1.la  libdb-4.1.so  libdb-4.so  libdb.a  libdb.so
mapserve:~/db/source/redland-1.0.3:498 >

[configure string]
./configure --prefix=/disk/mapserverdb/redland 
--with-bdb-lib=/disk/mapserverdb/bdb/lib 
--with-bdb-include=/disk/mapserverdb/bdb/include --with-bdb-name=db-4.1 
--with-bdb=/disk/mapserverdb/bdb

It's always been so easy before, I don't get it.
