There's the "passwordcheck" contrib:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/passwordcheck.html
It does the same thing as Oracle's PASSWORD_VERIFY_FUNCTION.
You can write your own password checking function.
This way you can also force a certain password expiry date
(PostgreSQL does not have a password life time).
