Hi Leon,

I'm the wrong person to ask about MacOS, so I post it on
pgadmin-hackers. Actually, I'm not sure if that wx version compiles
successfully at all on MacOS X.

Still, some suspect: Maybe you need some "enable-monolithic" option to
build correctly, wouldn't be the first platform that needs it.

In case you don't get it compiled in any way, and nobody of the Mac guys
can help you, please use a current wx cvs snapshot and try if that
compiles for you. If it does, I can help you further to add needed
patches, and we'll be upgrading our snapshot to get pgadmin3 MacOSX10.3
compatible.

Regards,
Andreas
