You can use array_agg(since 8.4):

test=# create table bla (id int, value text);
CREATE TABLE
test=*# copy bla from stdin;
Enter data to be copied followed by a newline.
End with a backslash and a period on a line by itself.
>> 1    bla
>> 1    foo
>> 1    bar
>> 2    foobar
>> 2    test
>> \.
test=*# select id, array_agg(value) from bla group by 1 order by 1;
 id |   array_agg
----+---------------
  1 | {bla,foo,bar}
  2 | {foobar,test}
(2 rows)


If you don't have 8.4 search the docu for array_accum:
