Thanks a lot for your time and effort.

One solution for my problem would be adjusting the SONAME of the libraries. At
least for 8.X libraries, it is set to 'lib<name>.so.M'. I could adjust the
SONAME to include the minor version as well, like 'lib<name>.so.M.N', which
would allow me to have libraries of different pgsql versions in /opt/csw/lib
and make sure the binaries load the libraries matching their version.

However, there is a concern in the OpenCSW community against this approach.
Therefore, I would like to know what pgsql thinks about mixing binaries and
libraries of different pgsql versions. Maybe a developer could shed some light
on this issue?

Rafael
