I believe this is a leftover from the days of yore when the libdbi
project contained the MySQL and PostgreSQL drivers. I suppose these
databases are most conveniently installed as Fink packages, and the
configure script had to be advised to find the installed headers and
libraries to build the drivers. Now that the drivers are part of a
separate package, there is no need to modify the environment
variables.

Yes. Please go ahead and use your simpler recipe.
