Hi!
When doing a "make check" on Mac OS X with SIP (aka rootless mode)
enabled it will fail like this:
----- >8 snip 8< -----
rm -rf ./testtablespace
mkdir ./testtablespace

../../../src/test/regress/pg_regress --temp-instance=./tmp_check
--inputdir=. --bindir= --dlpath=. --max-concurrent-tests=20

The problem is that the psql links to libpq which it cannot find (at
least not the one from the postgres you're building). The usual
approach to set an environment variable pointing to the correct
location (DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH on Mac OS X/darwin, see above) does not
work since Apple's SIP prevents it from getting passed to psql (see
https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/Security/Conceptual/System_Integrity_Protection_Guide/RuntimeProtections/RuntimeProtections.html
)
What I do in the attached patch is changing the install name of libpq
in the psql binary of the temp install (used by "make check") to point
to libpq of the temp install so the (correct) lib is found.
For not duplicating the information I created a new file
"Makefile.libdefs" to where I extracted the information needed to do
the install name change
This patch has only been tested on Mac OS X El Capitan (10.11.6) since
I currently have no other OS available
Please let me know what you think of it
