I really appreciate all the comments about this problem. I'm not a
developer but I've been around the block a few times here.
I "think" I have it working now. At least it compiled and I was able to
run initdb, pg_ctl and psql to login to my new test database. All in 64
bit with openssl compiled in.
How I did it.
I've been SO focued on postgres thinking it was the entire problem that
I forgot about ssl. Even though openssl compiled just fine, it
contributed to the problem. After recompiling it with gcc and using
-fpic and -m64 I recompiled postgres also with -fpic and -m64. Seems
that was the magic sauce here.
Now I'm running and will add a few more things in like readline. The
goal is to build plr and plperl and load them into postgres.
Crossing my fingers those will go smoother.
Thanks a bunch!!
