We support that combination in PG 8.0 and later. If you really want
7.4 on that platform, you can build it with gcc, or see about
back-porting the ia64/non-gcc fixes that went into 8.0, which would
include at least these:

2004-10-08 00:22 tgl

* src/Makefile.shlib: Tweak HPUX shared-library build flags, per
Shinji Teragaito.

2004-09-02 19:06 tgl

* src/: Makefile.shlib, makefiles/Makefile.hpux: Fix shared library
linking operations to work properly on all (or at least more)
combinations of HP-UX hardware, compiler, and linker. Shinji
Teragaito and Tom Lane.

2004-09-02 17:03 tgl

* src/include/port/hpux.h: Apparently HPUX runs the IA64 in
big-endian mode.

2004-09-02 13:12 tgl

* src/backend/utils/adt/float.c: Cope with recent HPUX versions
providing isfinite() instead of finite().

2004-09-02 13:10 tgl

* src/include/storage/s_lock.h: Add s_lock support for HPUX on
IA64, per Shinji Teragaito.

There are a lot of other build-process changes in 8.0, which might or
might not be relevant.
