Maybe it should be -lcrypto?

These files are in cvs. If you compile without debug, they are not
needed, because they are converted to xrcdialogs.cpp and compiled in.

You need it. The path is relative to the pgadmin3 executable, just as
./ui/common/*.xrc.

Probably. You can copy them manually, or
cd {your-pgadmin-src-dir}/src ; pgadmin3


Please post all results you have when running pgadmin3 on OSX, the port
is still not completed. Also, I'd be interested if everything works ok
if you use a recent wx snapshot from the official website, it should
work for you unpatched. What's happening  if you change fonts, does
everything still display correctly? This is one place where you might
locate problems.
