The mx package is required by the new python client code. It will indeed
build without mx, but it will not RUN without it. See rpmfind.net for
sources -- the name 'mx' is a RedHatism, and the same package goes by another
name, which I don't remember right off.
Oh, BTW: /var/spool/ftp on ftp.postgresql.org is correct.
