http://yum.pgsqlrpms.org/srpms/8.3/redhat/rhel-4-i386/repoview/postgresql.html

->

http://yum.pgsqlrpms.org/srpms/8.3/redhat/rhel-4-i386/postgresql-8.3.6-1PGDG.rhel4.src.rpm

Please note that you may want to use this spec file:

https://projects.commandprompt.com/public/pgcore/repo/rpm/redhat/8.3/postgresql/EL-3/postgresql-8.3.spec

(the main thing is enabling buildrhel3 macro in spec file)

http://yum.pgsqlrpms.org are the projects for PostgreSQL RPM packaging.
