I'll bet you installed an RPM at some point with "--force" when you shouldn't have when installing the new PostgreSQL versions. The package that contains libpq.so.4 (postgresql-libs is the standard one) is used by a lot of things and that's the only way I know of to end up in the spot you're in.
There's a long guide to working around the issues you run into converting from the stock PostgreSQL version to using the newer ones at http://www.westnet.com/~gsmith/content/postgresql/pgrpm.htm you should take a look at to see how to avoid getting stuck in this position again, and all you probably need to do to get out of your current jam is grab the compat-postgresql-libs packages from the same place you grabbed the rest of 8.3 from in order to put back libpq.so.4.
