I just downloaded and compiled PostgreSQL 8.0 beta 3. The directory and
files are all owned by the "postgres" user, and I compiled as that
user. I configured with:

./configure --prefix=/sw --with-tcl --with-python --with-libs=/sw/lib/
--with-includes=/sw/include/

(/sw is the root of the "fink" hierarchy, analogous in some ways to the
traditional /usr/local path.)

The "make check" log included the following:

creating template1 database in
/Users/reuven/Downloads/postgresql-8.0.0beta3/src
/test/regress/./tmp_check/data/base/1 ... FATAL: could not create
shared memory
segment: Cannot allocate memory
DETAIL: Failed system call was shmget(key=2, size=1163264, 03600).
HINT: This error usually means that PostgreSQL's request for a shared
memory se
gment exceeded available memory or swap space. To reduce the request
size (curre
ntly 1163264 bytes), reduce PostgreSQL's shared_buffers parameter
(currently 50)
and/or its max_connections parameter (currently 10).
The PostgreSQL documentation contains more information about
shared memo
ry configuration.
