Hello postgresql developers,
assuming, of course, somebody actually reads this bug report.
Naively checking the build using "make check" (yes, gnu make, and as an
unprivaleged user) fails all tests. The apparent reason is that
postgres cannot find its shared libraries.
FIX:
Enter
$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/src/postgresql-8.3.0/src/test/regress/tmp_check/install/usr/local/lib
before "make check" and all the tests are then successful.
Cheers,
Mike Dowling

Also, how exactly did you do the configure and build steps? And what do
the failures look like, in detail?
An idea that comes to mind is that you had an older PG version already
installed and for some reason the dynamic loader tried to resolve
libpq.so as the older version instead of the newer one. If that's the
problem then a temporary workaround such as LD_LIBRARY_PATH is often the
best answer for running "make check", since the issue will disappear
after you "make install" anyway.
