On a Mac it's actually going to be .dylib --- sorry about saying .so.
You should have something like

-rwxr-xr-x 1 tgl admin 166520 Oct 2 23:51 libpq.5.3.dylib*
lrwxr-xr-x 1 tgl admin 15 Oct 2 23:51 libpq.5.dylib@ -> libpq.5.3.dylib
lrwxr-xr-x 1 tgl admin 15 Oct 2 23:51 libpq.dylib@ -> libpq.5.3.dylib

where the numbers will vary depending on which PG release we're
talking about.

regards, tom lane
