If you're not using the module you could just disable it from loading. I don't know how Fedora packages the apache configuration files, but you should be able to edit something like /etc/apache2/modules.conf to comment out the line that loads mod_auth_pgsql. On my debian box, apache2 modules are loaded from a symlink on /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/ to the actual module config on /etc/apache2/mods-available/, so you would just delete the symlink in /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/. Hope that helps.
