>Description:
Building process of zsh automatically detects existence of libgdbm.so.3
for db_gdbm zsh module and link it to zsh binary,
though zsh port does not define the explicit dependency.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install databases/gdbm
Install shells/zsh
Uninstall databases/gdbm
Then zsh won't run.
>Fix:
No sample fix.

One idea is providing another option:
ZSH_GDBM "Build db_gdbm module" on
Then if WITH_ZSH_GDBM is set, add the dependency;
if not, add --disable-gdbm to CONFIGURE_ARGS.
