Comment (by barracuda156):

 Replying to [comment:1 nilason]:
 > `pointcloud` uses for parts of its build, configuration from PostgreSQL,
 derived by including `pg_config --pgxs`  (the configurations of interest
 is ultimately read from
 `${prefix}/lib/postgresql15/pgxs/src/Makefile.global`). According to Port
 health at https://ports.macports.org/port/pg15-pgpointcloud/details/, this
 is working out fine for all OS with results. The C++ standard part is
 surely easily implementable, but I have no idea of how to address the
 second part of the ticket.

 Well, `postgresql15` does not require C++11, AFAIK, so it builds fine with
 `gcc-4.2`. We can probably switch it to use modern GCC, if that is the
 only way.

 P. S. Port health is useless for old systems, since no buildbots for 10.5,
 no buildbots for powerpc and no buildbots using libstdc++.
