Your runtime loader does not search /usr/local/lib by default. As the error
message tells you: your runtime loader, /usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1, cannot
find the library libgdbm.so.3 because it is installed in /usr/local/lib, but
the runtime loader is probably configured to search only the /lib and
/usr/lib directories.

ld-elf.so's man page probably tells you what needs to be done to add
/usr/local/lib to ld-elf's search path.

Furthermore, this is also wrong. If you run the C compiler and pass an
option called, verbatim, "/usr/local/lib", the C compiler, of course does
not know that it needs to automatically prepend "-I" and process this option
accordingly.

Ditto for the linker.
