The question is *why* the location is nonstandard. Other people's Macs
are not set up that way (mine seems to have these files in the expected
place, for example).

That would help configure find the stuff in /Developer/usr/bin, but
it does nothing for files that ought to be in /usr/lib, /usr/include,
etc. I am not sure whether adding these to the configure command
would be sufficient:
--with-includes=/Developer/usr/include --with-libraries=/Developer/usr/lib
On the whole the best thing would be to toss /Developer and reinstall
your devtools in the standard places. The nonstandard location is going
to bite you for every package you work with, not only Postgres.
