Thanks for the info!

FYI, on Mac OS X 10.5.5 the libiconv.dylib is built as a universal binary:

$ file /usr/lib/libiconv.dylib
/usr/lib/libiconv.dylib: Mach-O universal binary with 4 architectures
/usr/lib/libiconv.dylib (for architecture ppc7400): Mach-O dynamically linked shared library ppc
/usr/lib/libiconv.dylib (for architecture ppc64): Mach-O 64-bit dynamically linked shared library ppc64
/usr/lib/libiconv.dylib (for architecture i386): Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386
/usr/lib/libiconv.dylib (for architecture x86_64): Mach-O 64-bit dynamically linked shared library x86_64

Despite this my PHP build was still failing with “Undefined symbols” until I found that the copy of libiconv.dylib that Fink installed was the culprit:

$ file /sw/lib/libiconv.2.4.0.dylib
/sw/lib/libiconv.2.4.0.dylib: Mach-O dynamically linked shared library i386

It successfully loads pdo_pgsql and pgsql support. I have a MB with OSX 10.5
