You might take a look in the pending repo. That has a bdb package that 
seems to be a Berkeley DB. Please note the  terms of use for the pending 
repo, reproduced here:

This repository contains packages contributed from the community or by 
automatic package generation programs. Packages must complete a pending 
repo process. Packages in the pending repo are not qualified and not 
recommended for installation by users.

Use at Own Risk: As provided in the Web Site Terms of Use 
<http://pkg.opensolaris.org/license/contrib/>, the Hosts may or may not 
pre-screen or perform compatibility testing on the Materials, and by 
using this repository You agree to assume all risks in Using the 
Materials. These risks include, but are not limited to, errors, viruses, 
worms, time-limited software that expires without notice, defamatory or 
offensive content, and the possibility that the Materials infringe or 
misappropriate the intellectual property rights of others.


So, that might be a solution if you prefer that option over building it 
yourself from scratch.
