My problem seems to be due to a 32-bit vs. 64-bit issue. I found this remark in the readme the came with the precompiled pg82 binaries:
The PL/Perl and PL/Python languages have been dropped for now - they currently don't build 64bit. This led me to this page on the Apple site: http://developer.apple.com/releasenotes/OpenSource/PerlExtensionsRelNotes/index.html Sounds like I need to recompile my perl5.8 installation. Unfortunately, I don't know enough about compiling for processor architectures to know what to do. If anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate it.
