To build DB for a UNIX platform:

    cd build.unix
    ../dist/configure
    make

To build multiple UNIX versions of DB in the same source tree, create
a new directory then configure and build.

    mkdir build.bsdos3.0
    cd build.bsdos3.0
    ../dist/configure
    make

For additional information about building DB for UNIX platforms, the
description of possible configuration options and other information
on DB configuration and build issues, see the file build.unix/README.
	
To build DB for a WIN32 platform, see build.win32.
