Congrats!
On the postgis support page (http://postgis.refractions.net/support.php)

Hey, that worked! Seems crazy, but what do I know? But I'm curious how you
found that reference -- I couldn't see a search function in the archives.

Now the fun begins, learning MapServer all over again ...

Thanks,

I can't help you with the DCMMS issue, but I think the problem you first
mention is addressed at:
http://postgis.refractions.net/pipermail/postgis-users/2003-March/002263.html

Basically you need to change one line in a file and then run make again
(maybe "make clean" first).
I don't know, but I have a hunch that the latest version of postgis doesn't
have this problem (anyone know?).  I just went through installing it and
don't remember having the problem.
