Why not just compile an extra PostgreSQL, and put it in its own path?
./configure --prefix=/other/path/to/new/pgsql
ought to work. The only thing you should need is the right
LD_LIBRARY_PATH to get the libraries for psql, &c., at runtime. You
can write a little file which sets up the environment for each, if
you need them both. Then just source the appropriate file when you
want to use the relevant version of PostgreSQL.
I have a little doc we use internally about installing PostgreSQL
without root; I suppose I could alter it for general use if it would
be helpful to people.
