I've seen a blank screen on login a few times.  Usually because it's a version of PHP before 4.1.0, and can't handle the form POST with the (new) superglobals ($_POST, $_GET etc.).  Though this usually occurs immediately - no long timeout.

Apache 1.3.26 and PostgreSQL 7.2 are compatible with Core 2.02.  Database errors (including no connection) will give detailed error messages.

A quick Google around the OS X Knowledgebase (looking for PHP version) revealed that OS X 10.0 had problems with form POST not working!!  It was apparently fixed in OS X 10.1.  It's article ID 106400.
