i think they removed this library from postgres

https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/11346

I compiled it without this library and seems to be ok

The correct topic to discuss here is "does this particular library exist 
in RHEL 6 and does not exist in CentOS 6?". Changes between major 
releases , as imposed by RHEL, are not really a topic for this list, as, 
as you must know, CentOS tries maintain 100% binary compatibility with 
RHEL's binary packages.

If RHEL decided to change the name of the library/libraries then 
probably you should follow their trend and
 change the configuration 
options of whatever software you try to build.
As a sidenote, your initial message mentioned /usr/lib/libpgport.a not 
/lib/libpgport.a.
And also, you either make confusions between static and dynamic libs or 
you forgot to explain something. As an observation, it is nicer for your 
users to use dynamic libs wherever possible.
