Ah, O.K., sorry, I tried not to be too verbose. '/usr' should read as 'the respective subdirectories in /usr'. To be precise, for uuid I have: /usr/bin/uuidgen [the CL tool, which should be of no interest here] /usr/include/uuid/uuid.h and that's the same as you have. Nothing else uuid-related in /usr. And yes, AFAICT, uuid-functionalities (a) are part of libc, (b) appear to be DCE compatible. I have installed _ossp-uuid_ with --prefix=usr/local, so my question is not, why pg's configure script ignores OS X's uuid stuff. I'm looking for a way to let configure recognize the ossp-uuid library.
