Ok, could you try to edit setup.py, scroll to the end and remove the
line:

runtime_library_dirs = pypgsql_rt_dirs

This should hopefully get rid of the compile error. Where did you get
the PostgreSQL for MacOS X for? Or did you compile it yourself?

I have access to a MacOS X box at the Sourceforge compile farm, but
unfortunately, it doesn't have PostgreSQL installed.

If this already works fine for compiling pyPgSQL, could you then send me
your working setup.py? I'll then try to change the FAQ and build process
accordingly, so that building works out of the box in future pyPgSQL
releases.
