I'll answer my own question. Modify this in the config.Imakefile:
#ifdef NDBM
DBMFLAG=-DNDBM
KDB_LIB=$(KDB_LIBDEP)
#else
to be this:
#ifdef NDBM
DBMFLAG=-DNDBM
KDB_LIB=$(KDB_LIBDEP) -L/usr/local/lib -lgdbm
#else
(assuming you've got /usr/local/lib/libgdbm.a).
My database of 23,000 principals now occupies only 8.5MB. With
ndbm, it occupies 25MB (and looks to be 200MB due to sparsity).
Oh, and gzip compresses that 8.5MB down to under 1MB...which is
about 1/2 the size of the dumped text version. Great for doing
those nightly tape backups. :-)
