I used the following configure command:
CPPFLAGS="-DwxUSE_DEPRECATED=0" ./configure \
--prefix=/usr/local/wx/2.5.5/static_nodebug \
--disable-shared \
--disable-debug \
--enable-unicode \
--disable-universal \
--with-mac
I didn't observe the Rez/DeRez difficulties you had. Which
Version of the DeveloperTools are you using? I'm using
1.5 at the moment
(gcc version 3.3 20030304 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 1671)),
but I believe it worked with 1.2 too...
However - I'd suggest that you write down the arguments to DeRez
that crashed it, kill the process, and try to run it "by hand".
If it still crashes, you could either ktrace it, to see whats going on,
or you just "touch lib/libwx_mac-2.5.5.r", and restart the build.
If you create the file using "touch", make should than decide that
the file doesn't need to be recreated, and just continue with the steps
after the DeRez call.
I don't really get what wx is trying to do with this Rez/DeRez calls, but
to me it looks like the want to combine some ressource-sources
(apprsrc.r,carbrsrc.r and corersrc.r) into one ressource-source. Since
that doesn't seem to be supported by Rez and DeRez, they compile all
those sources into a compiled-ressource, and than decompile the Ressource
into one big ressource-source. Since ressource-sources (*.r files) are
plaintext, you could try to combine than by using "cat file1 file2 file3 > resultfile".

Building wx was very smooth for me...
If you just want to hack on pgadmin, and not on wx, I could
email you the result of my wx build.
