erob@localhost:~/work/postgresql-8.4.7$ head config.log
This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.
It was created by PostgreSQL configure 8.4.7, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.61. Invocation command line was
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/pgsql --with-libxml --disable-debug
--enable-thread-safety --with-CC=llvm-gcc --with-openssl
--with-libs=/usr/lib --with-includes=/usr/include
I also just noticed the compiler was set to llvm-gcc and not gcc4. I
will try again
with gcc 4.4.5.
