building Postgresql 7.3.10 on Mac OS X 10.4

I would get a newer version of PostgreSQL, either 8.0.X or 8.1beta. I
am sure that wil work.

Yes, I discontinued support for the 7.3.x series on Mac OS X 10.4 in
the Fink packages for just this reason; it's not worth trying to
backport the changes from the 7.4+ series that make it possible to
repair these issues.

For more recent versions of OS X (since 10.2 I think), you need
-no-cpp-precomp instead of -traditional-cpp. PG 7.3.* is too old to
know about that ... you can probably fix this in src/template/darwin,
but it may not be the last such gotcha. Are you sure you want such an
old PG version? I'd currently recommend the 8.0 branch for production
and 8.1 for development.

Hi Tom,

Thanks, that got me passed that step, but make failed on another. My production site is stuck with 7.3.10 (RHEL 3.0), and I would like to have a separate development site on a OS X 10.4 machine, but alas, it seems I'll have to keep them together.

Thanks all for input,
Pete
