/Library/WebServer/Documents/postgresql/html ...
I don't know where else Apple documents this, but there's a
complete-looking set of client-side libraries and command line tools
from Postgres 9.0.4 in base Lion. I understand that if you buy Lion
Server you get the postmaster too, but I haven't done that so I can't
verify it from personal experience. libpq.dylib is definitely right
there in /usr/lib though, and it apparently is well-configured, because
/usr/bin/pg_config says
CONFIGURE = '--mandir=/usr/share/man' '--infodir=/usr/share/info' '--disable-dependency-tracking' '--prefix=/usr'
'--sbindir=/usr/libexec''--sysconfdir=/private/etc' '--localstatedir=/var/pgsql'
'--htmldir=/Library/WebServer/Documents/postgresql''--enable-thread-safety' '--enable-dtrace' '--with-tcl'
'--with-perl''--with-python' '--with-gssapi' '--with-krb5' '--with-pam' '--with-ldap' '--with-bonjour' '--with-openssl'
'--with-libxml''--with-libxslt' '--with-system-tzdata=/usr/share/zoneinfo' 'CFLAGS=-arch x86_64 -arch i386 -pipe -Os -g
-Wall-Wno-deprecated-declarations' 'LDFLAGS=-arch x86_64 -arch i386 -pipe -Os -g -Wall -Wno-deprecated-declarations'
'LDFLAGS_EX=-mdynamic-no-pic'
I've not made an attempt to use it directly myself, but it sure looks
like it should do what the OP wants.
