Phil-

I vaguely remember seeing a similar message when I inadvertently
mismatched versions of psql and libpq. I think that the problem was psql
resolving to the wrong libpq, but this is an old memory.

Some suggestions:
1) ldd psql
This will tell you which libraries are being dynamically linked. Make
sure you think this what you expect.

2) check/unset your LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable.

3) I'm guessing you're on a linux box (guess per mail header), I also
guess you might have an RPM-based system. If so, I'd further guess that
you've recompiled postgresql AND have an rpm-installed version. rpm -e
postgresql will remove the rpm version (can't remember if postgresql
rpms are divided into subpackages... you might actually need
postgresql-libs and postgresql-clients or some such names).
