If there is a crash then check for a crashlog (Console.app). It may
be a problem with postgis handling bad data, or it may be as simple as
a library linking issue.

Cheers William,
thanks for your engagement!
I sent you an email a couple of days ago, which showed the same
problems as we had before. Generally, I would say that it always
comes down to the same thing: The postgres server craches when
importing/restoring dumped tables with geometries.
It just comes to my mind, that, perhaps, it's not a problem of
postgres/postgis installation, but a problem of the tables within
the (old) database, which i try to import?! I should try (tomorrow)
to import a couple of "known" shapefiles, as the ones delivered with
the ESRI stuff for example...
Thanks for your input guys, I will try, with new motivation, to get
my beast running tomorrow morning...

Hi Stefan,
Last time we talked you were having problems with the confusion of
the postgres system user and postgres role and the automatic
startup of postgres.
I'd like to get it working for you, so don't give up yet.

Is there any chance that this subject (for 10.5) has been solved?
Any suggestions? I used the macports to install postgres (8.2)
and postgis (1.3.1)...
I would, after all the experiences I went through, ask the
question slightly different... :
Can anybody give me installation instructions on how to install
postgres & postgis on Leopard (with a MacPro)? Either by hand-
compiling or with MacPorts? Or some other stuff? Strange enough,
even the kyngchaos libs didn't work, even after having completely
re-installed my machine...
Thanks thousand times for any such advice!
Stef
