I think it should work to just configure and build postgres the same as
you otherwise would --- I believe Apple's gcc follows the usual
convention of looking in /usr/local first. You can check the results
with "otool -L psql". If it mentions /usr/lib/libedit.dylib or
/usr/lib/libreadline.dylib, you still have a dependency on libedit,
else not.
