The tickets problem is normal, but I think it has been solved in one
of the last commits. Update your working copy first (svn update),
compile and check again.

About creating the new database, did you follow the steps in the same
order? First create empty db, install PL/pgSQL, install PostGIS. In
which step are you stuck?

Anyway, in your log output I only see NOTICE messages, not errors.
Could you try this, from a console?

psql -U postgres -d template_postgis

If you connect to your postgres backed, the database has been
correctly created.

Best regards,
