CONTRIB: missing search.h src's

Reini --
   On June 6, the newlib folks added the search functions (newlib is the 
c runtime library that forms part of cygwin1.dll).  However, the header 
files that declare the functions conflict with the recent berkeley-db 
package -- and the search functions themselves are not "exported" by 
cygwin1.dll.

You would probably be better off, for now, building cvsps against 
berk-db instead...until we can get the conflict sorted out.  (Geez, it's 
funny how this one topic came up three times today...synchronicity?)
