Right. Another comment is that there is no "required development
environment". Ideally Postgres should run on pretty nearly any Unix-ish
operating system and pretty nearly any ANSI-C-ish compiler and C
library. So use whatever floats your boat. If things don't work
nicely, then you've got your first project: port to your preferred
platform. I know one of the first things I had to do when I started
using Postgres was clean up some problems with its portability to HPUX.
