./configure --enable-pgsql --enable-debug --prefix=/usr/local checking unaligned accesses... ok PLATFORM ..... : Power Macintosh OS ........... : Darwin 7.7.0 (hvk.local) COMPILER ..... : gcc CFLAGS ....... : -O0 -g -W -Wall -I/usr/local/pgsql/include LIBS ......... : -lpcap -L/usr/local/pgsql/lib -lpq -lm -lz LDFLAGS ...... : Hasn't crashed since. I'm suspecting a hardware defect, b/c mutt also crashed on me which had never happened before. So I dis-/reassembled the iBook, and all is stable again since. -Andre
