this patch and tar archive will add support for the darwin/osxpb to the current cvs tree.

a couple things to note:

- unpack the tar archive in pgsql/

- the config.guess and config.sub files have been updated by apple to support their new os. i don't think these changes have been folded back in to the main archive yet (at least they aren't in the pgsql cvs yet). these need to be copied over from /usr/libexec/config.* in order to obtain the correct os (e.g. powerpc-apple-darwin1.2 on PB).

- the diff only patches configure.in so autoconf needs to be rerun

- the situation with darwin's implementation of sysv semaphores is in progress at the moment (the shm/ipc support *is* there and seems to work fine). so this patch uses HAVE_SYS_SEM_H to conditionally build the src/backend/port/darwin semaphore code (borrowed from qnx4). I've followed the BeOS example of including the necessary sem.h declarations in src/include/port/darwin.h. this is rather messy at the moment and can be dumped once apple releases a version of PB with sysv sem built into the kernel.

- i'm a bit confused over the __powerpc__ tas function in s_lock.c (there i assume for the ppc-linux port). it doesn't compile at all on darwin so i just added a version that does work on darwin under DARWIN_OS. it's potentially a bit confusing and s_lock.c should probably be changed to include a better conditional.
