Re: postgres on MacOS X 10.1

I have tried compiling Postgres under 10.1, with the -flat_namespace
switch, but am still having other problems. I'll post if I get past
them. I've stopped trying for right now, since I found a .pkg with int
built under 10.1 at <http://www.entropy.ch/software/macosx/postgresql/>.
It has a disclaimer that it hasn't been tested, but it seems to be
working fine for me. YMMV.
