I can't tell you such a thing (i'm using a postgresql packaged by an 
accounting software) but after a quick look on the postgresql website 
there's a Mac OS X installer there[1] which would be simpler than 
compiling the sources if you're not familiar with the Xcode/devtools 
thingies.

According to Postgresql's wiki there are some solutions[2].

PS. i'm crossposting to comp.databases.postgresql and 
comp.sys.mac.system and set the followup to comp.databases.postgresql 
as those are english spoken newsgroups and your question is more 
postgresql related.

PPS. grab a *real* newsreader for Usenet; Google's interface really 
s*cks
