Charlie,

Is there any way I can use the above to build my own version of  
psycop2 2.0.12  with
the community version 2.6.2 of python installed? I have built a 32bit  
i386 only version
of postgresql 8.4.1.

This is what happens if I use the tried and true 'python setup.py  
build' command

[mbp:~/python/psycopg2-2.0.12]$ python setup.py build
running build
running build_py
running build_ext

***************************
It looks like it is trying to build against a very old toolkit  
( 10.4)...

The error messages are not clear to me.. the stdarg.h file exists in  
the 10.4u directory and
includes the 'standard' stdarg.h

I have built a 32 bit i386 only version of postgresql ( 8.4.1)

Any suggestions?
