You can either use the 9.1 installer which should work on OS X 10.5,
or use an alternate distribution, such as MacPorts, which will compile
the server for your version of OS X.

Unfortunately it's hard for us to build releases that continue to
support older versions of OS X, as when we buy new build machines they
won't run older versions of OS X, and the modern versions of OS X
don't support compiling code for much older versions (they only
supplied SDKs for 10.7 and 10.8 with the last version of XCode I got
for example).
