er ... s/pgsql-archives/pgsql-hackers/ of course ... a bit of trolling
later, it seems that this message has the best summary of what you have
to do with 8.3 or older branches to get working universal binaries:

Things will be less ugly with 8.4:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2008-07/msg00884.php
but still not just a quick CFLAGS setting away.
But it remains to be determined whether that's actually the cause of the
view problem you're complaining about. Did you configure/build on a
different arch than you're running on now?
