Summary: Old bsddb version picked by setup.py

Initial Comment:
I have two versions of Berkeley DB in the standard
include path. The code in setup.py finds the newer
version first (db4) and then finds the older version
(db3) later in scanning standard includes. This means
that the bsddb module is built against the older rather
than the newer version.

The attached patch to setup.py records all standard
headers that are found and lets the db_search_order
list choose which version of the library to link against.
