Following the discussions in
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2009-09/msg01766.php
and
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2009-10/msg00025.php ,
here are patches for

a) a hook in backend/commands/user.c that allows one to add
password checking functions
b) a contrib module that makes use of the hook and
c) documentation for the contrib module.

I'll add links to the November commitfest page.

Yours,
Laurenz Albe
