Hi Stuart,
I've compiled psycopg (psycopg2-2.0.5.1) on 10.4/Intel without a  
hitch, and without editing any config files that I can remember.  
(It's been a while.) I think I've done this with both Python 2.3.5  
that comes w/OS X and with Python 2.5 that I installed myself.

Where is it getting this isysroot from? That looks like the source of  
your problems, because later on we see this:

If you trim "/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk" from the front of that  
path, I bet the file exists.
