This appears to be an issue with leopard. You have to set the
environment variable ARCHFLAGS appropriately. For example:

# export ARCHFLAGS=' -arch i386 '
# gem install --remote postgres

Can you please try that and tell me whether it works?

As I understand it, that's due to a problem with leopard that will
hopefully be fixed. If there's something I should do in my build process
to guard against that problem, than I will.

Thank you for reporting the issue, I will alert others of the potential
problem.
