Hmm - we need to find out why the files are missing. First thing to try is 
"locate plpgsql.so" and see if that can find your library. If so, make sure 
you have its location added to /etc/ld.so.conf and re-run "ldconfig".

If the file genuinely doesn't exist, did you install from RPM or source?
If RPM, try "rpm -ql postgresql-server" to see what files it thinks it 
installed.
If source, can you remember what options you chose to compile with, or do you 
have the source-directories still around? If you still have the source, 
there'll be a file called configuration.cache or similar that should hold 
your config options.

RedHat changed their version of glibc between 7.2 and 8.0 - you can't just 
move libraries between these versions.

rather do an rpm -qa | grep post to see if postgresql-pl-7.3.4-2PGDG is
installed, it is the rpm for procedural languages in 7.3.* and didn't
exist in the 7.2.* rpmset.

Ah, but the .so isn't in the -pl RPM (I'm guessing plpgsql is considered 
"core").

$ rpm -qif /usr/lib/pgsql/plpgsql.so
Name        : postgresql-server            Relocations: (not relocateable)
Version     : 7.3.4                             Vendor: (none)
...

Right you are Richard, my apologies. I'll go crawl back under my rock now :-)
