I don't know about SCO, but non-elf systems often need eg.
a file /etc/ld.so.conf or an environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH which
contain a list of directories to search for shared libraries. Maybe
pgsql/lib needs to be added...
ldd `which psql`
would say "not found" for lpq.2. ("error opening" sounds more ominous, but
might be the same?)
