Joe,

   My initial thought, too. But, that's not it.

/usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.so
/usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.so.5
/usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.so.5.3
/usr/lib/libpq.so
/usr/lib/libpq.so.5

   The softlinks in /usr/lib/ are to /usr/local/pgsql/lib/libpq.so.5.3.

   Since postgres-9.0.4 runs quite well here there must be some other factor
in play.

Thanks,

Rich
