It works for me (on this same powerbook that I'm typing on) and for
several Macs in the buildfarm.

Offhand that looks like some reports that we've seen before about
obsolete tool chains, ie, I think you forgot to update Xcode when
you updated to Tiger.  See for instance this thread:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-general/2005-05/msg00830.php

PG 8.1 does generate a pile of warnings when compiled on Tiger
w/current Xcode, but they're pretty harmless.  As of CVS HEAD
we're clean, that is I see just the same one or two flex-induced
warnings on OS X as anywhere else...
