I generally work just with sources in Mac OS. I'd suggest to compile
PostgreSQL, and then pgPointCloud. I use this:

https://github.com/mnencia/pgenv

that is able to install and configure different PostgreSQL versions
instances, including dev tools, debug symbols, etc., useful if you have to
develop something related with PostgreSQL. I already used PostgreSQL 9.6 +
pgPointCloud 1.1 in my Mac OS X Sierra laptop in this way.

Regards,
Giuseppe.
