libpq.so.3 corresponds to the libpq version that was shipped in
PG release series 7.3.x and 7.4.x.  8.2 provides libpq.so.5.

Your subsequent comments make it pretty clear that you've got
(at least portions of) both 7.x and 8.x PG installations on your
machine.  I'd suggest flushing all traces of the older one and
then rebuilding DBD::Pg from a clean start.  Somehow it's been
seizing on the older PG installation as the one to link to...
