Attempting to compile PG 7.4.13 on a MBP (OSX 10.4.8, Intel), this happens:
===
gcc -no-cpp-precomp -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes
-Wmissing-declarations -I../../../../src/include -I/sw/include/ -c -o
xlog.o xlog.c
In file included from ../../../../src/include/storage/spin.h:50,

../../../../src/include/storage/s_lock.h:543:2: error: #error PostgreSQL
does not have native spinlock support on this platform. To continue the
compilation, rerun configure using --disable-spinlocks. However,
performance will be poor. Please report this to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I gather this means that PG 7.4.13 is incompatible with Intel Macs?
