That's a good point. Also can you show us:
pg_config --libdir
pg_config --version

Is there really an "@" on the end of "libpq.so"? Is that a Mac thing?

Well, yes, it means that RdbiPgSQL cannot find libpq in order to link to
it. What I wonder about is whether it is really looking for libpq.so, or
is it looking for libpq.dylib. This is another of those Mac OS X things
I've run into before -- but I don't really understand when an so is
required and when a dylib is required.
