There is no reason to think that it wouldn't be.

8.0.2 doesn't build out of the box on build 8A351B. I've not had a chance
to see what's going on yet, but it doesn't look like anything too hard
to fix.

Cheers,

My guess would be any issues on building would be related to gcc4 in
tiger, and any changes needed for that will be applicable to gcc4 on
any other platform too.  But that's just a SWAG.

Well, considering that PostgreSQL is now used by Apple Remote Desktop, for
storing client-management kinds of info, I expect there will be some way to
get it working ;-)

I confirmed that my postgresql 8.0.2 and 7.4.7 packages build in fink
in the latest revision seeded to developers...  It's only a few builds
away from what is said to be final, so I'm betting it's just fine.

Not a bad guess --- but I know that 8.0.* builds in Red Hat devel tip,
which is gcc4 (and that covers multiple platforms including ppc).
So if there's an issue on Tiger then it's more specific than gcc4.

I'm sure we can fix it whenever we see a good report on the problem.
