>Description:
Trying to build port WITH_BDB_HIGHEST results in:
cc -DDEF_CONFIG_DIR=\"/usr/local/etc/postfix\" -DDEF_DAEMON_DIR=\"/usr/local/libexec/postfix\" -DDEF_COMMAND_DIR=\"/usr/local/sbin\" -DDEF_SENDMAIL_PATH=\"/usr/local/sbin/sendmail\" -DDEF_NEWALIAS_PATH=\"/usr/local/bin/newaliases\" -DDEF_MAILQ_PATH=\"/usr/local/bin/mailq\" -DDEF_MANPAGE_DIR=\"/usr/local/man\" -DDEF_README_DIR=\"no\" -DDEF_HTML_DIR=\"no\" -DDEF_QUEUE_DIR=\"/var/spool/postfix\" -DDEF_DATA_DIR=\"/var/db/postfix\" -DDEF_MAIL_OWNER=\"postfix\" -DDEF_SGID_GROUP=\"maildrop\" -DHAS_PCRE -I/usr/local/include -DUSE_TLS -I/usr/include -I/usr/local/include/db50  -O2 -pipe -march=nocona -fno-strict-aliasing -I. -DFREEBSD8 -c dict_cidr.c

dict_db.c:685:2: error: #error "Unsupported Berkeley DB version"
>How-To-Repeat:
cd /usr/ports/mail/postfix; make -DWITH_BDB_HIGHEST
>Fix:
At least INVALID_BDB_VER=50+. This would result in:

===>  postfix-2.7.0,1 cannot install: does not work with Berkeley DB version 50 (50+ not supported).
*** Error code 1

A better way is to ask bsd.database.mk people to add the possibility to not fail on INVALID_BDB_VER but instead try each other version installed. So if 5.0 and 4.8 are installed simultaneously the 5.0 gets rejected and 4.8 is used instead.
