[postgis-users] successful build of postgis on OSX10.3.2

[Byron Amerson]

It took a little work but it seems that things are working smoothly.

Gcc3.4 was required. Gcc-3.4 builds with the needed shared libs for
libstdc++. After gcc-3.4 is built, the file /usr/include/mach-o/dyld.h
needs to be modified. Add the line: #define __private_extern__ extern
just above the block:
#if defined(__MWERKS__) && !defined(__private_extern__)
#define __private_extern__ __declspec(private_extern)
#endif

Credit for the dyld.h fix goes to Andrew Pinski at the mac unix-porting
list.

I re-compiled proj4, geos-1.0 and posgresql-7.4 using the new gcc3.4 and
then followed the directions for building postgis in README.postgis.

Success (finally...).
