Hm, what's that "@loader_path" business?  I don't know much about
dynamic linking on OS X, but if that works at all, it must be some sort
of environment reference, which would be pretty fragile.  I'd suggest
asking EnterpriseDB whether that's meant to be like that or is a
packaging bug.  And if it is meant to be like that, what do you have to do
to ensure the reference is resolved correctly?
