What version of dev-db/postgresql and dev-db/libpq do you have installed? (Apparently 8.0.8 - nothing wrong with it - just crosschecking.) What version of dev-perl/DBI is installed?

Unable to reproduce. Works after reinstall.
Same problem here ... Solved it by recompiling the 'dev-perl/DBI' package. Gentoo won't do that automaticly for you when you are upgrading... however rebuilding it manually has solved my problems DQ
