Which version are you talking about specifically? We have several versions
under /opt/csw/bdb* and also an old 1.85 in addition to the system provided ones.

We already have a package for that. It is now available at
  /opt/csw/bin/bzr
on all unstable* hosts.

We already had a package Makefile but never released it. I took care of that
and it is now also installed in /opt/csw on all unstable* hosts. Please keep
in mind that this is compiler-specific due to the name-mangling and that we
only have the GCC version.
