You can try one of the packages too. I have had the most success with
the one from www.entropy.ch. It installs in /usr/local/pgsql and creates
a postgres user which means porting over a dump from Linux is as easy as
psql -d dbname -f /User/me/Documents/dump.out

There are issues with locale and the database system being UTF-8 (my
older databases being LATIN1 or LATIN9). But now my development server
runs on Mac OS X. pgaccess works just fine too.
