It seems last time when I tried to build nginx with MacOSX system perl
it was Leopard 10.5.x. On Snow Leopard 10.6.8 "#undef bool" in
src/os/unix/ngx_atomic is not required, but
   perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e ldopts
issues settings which do not allow to link nginx:
  -arch x86_64 -arch i386 -arch ppc -L/usr/local/lib  -L/System/Library/Perl/5.10.0/darwin-thread-multi-2level/CORE -lperl -ldl -lm -lutil -lc

ld: warning: in objs.gcc/src/core/nginx.o, file was built for unsupported file format which is not the architecture being linked (i386)
