Hello,
Under the next version of macOS (11.0 unreleased beta 3), configuring Postgres 9.5 and 9.6 fails with
> checking test program... ok
> checking whether long int is 64 bits... no
> checking whether long long int is 64 bits... no
> configure: error: Cannot find a working 64-bit integer type.
This has been fixed for Postgres 10 and onwards by the following commit. It would be nice for this to be back-ported
forpeople building 9.5 or 9.6 on MacOS.
