I am by no means an expert on this ... but it sounds like you are 
running into one of the 'strange' things about Mac OS X (it doesn't use 
the 'normal' dlopen() api).

There are a couple of options ... you can use the dlopen() shim (which 
has it's own potential issues), or you can 'fix' the code to use the 
native Mac OS X/Darwin dynamic loading stuff (check the apache source 
code for a good example of how to do this, or look at the mailing list 
archives at www.darwinfo.org).

I hope this helps.

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
    (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo@postgresql.org)
