See "System Catalogs" and "System Information Functions" (or
"Miscellaneous Functions") in the documentation. Here are links
to documentation for the latest release:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/interactive/catalogs.html
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/interactive/functions-info.html

Something like this might be what you're looking for:

SELECT nspname
FROM pg_namespace
WHERE has_schema_privilege(nspname, 'USAGE')
ORDER BY nspname;

Note that USAGE privilege on a schema doesn't necessarily mean the
user has any privileges on the objects in that schema.
