We have a pgslq 8.x in the dev.centos.org site ... you might try that:

http://dev.centos.org/centos/4/testing/x86_64/RPMS/

(remember that this is beta quality for centos ... but it still should
be a better fit than standard stuff from the pgsql website because it
should work with php/apache from centos.)
