a bit older? That function was added to the backend relatively
recently.
There is no other postgresql on my system, so that can't be it.
The other possibility that comes to mind is that this is Snow
Leopard-specific breakage. But others have reported successful builds
on SL.
Indeed, that's what bothers me. I'll try to use root, create a separate postgres user, and a few other things. I'm sure it's just something trivial I'm overlooking.
