I don't have apache on my system, so I cannot check, but I think that
EXTRA_LIBS is not the right place; that ought to come in the link options
bit of the command line, which is too late.  You want an option called
EXTRA_INCLUDES, if there is one, and it should contain `-I/usr/include/db'
to tell gcc to look there for include files as well as in /usr/include.
