Hmm, I installed using DarwinPorts (I think, if that uses 'port') -- I wonder if it can be reinstalled that way and pass a HAVE_64BIT_TIMESTAMP flag to it. Besides my current problem, does HAVE_64BIT_TIMESTAMP have much impact on things? > But I still strongly suspect this'll be an > easy fix once we figure it out. :) Heh, I hope. :) I've never had a problem with PG before, and I have no idea how or why this happened (other than it coincided with rebooting).
