$ cd m4-1.4.17
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local
$ make
$ sudo make install

$ php -v

download php-5.5.29.tar.gz from php.net
[php version same current mac]

$ tar -zxvf php-5.5.29.tar.gz
$ cd php-5.5.29/ext/pdo_pgsql
$ phpize
$ ./configure --with-pdo-pgsql=/Applications/Postgres.app/Contents/Versions/9.4/

at this time there will be an install error, because the mac filesystem permission problem, so…

$ cp modules/pdo_pgsql.so /usr/local/lib/

$ vi /etc/php.ini

$ sudo apachectl start
$ php -m
