 It isn't, and the cause for it is not limited to the backport of the
package, though the problem only can affect the backport due to that
there is no libpq-dev in testing/unstable that does offer libpq.so.4
instead of libpq.so.5.

 The problem was at least introduced in 8.2.6-2 (if not earlier),
changelog reads as:

#v+
  * Add build dependency libpq-dev, so that dpkg-shlibdeps can find
    libpq.so.5.
#v-

 The problem here is that this Build Dependency isn't versioned to a
version that depends on libpq5 instead of only libpq4 (which happens
with the stable version of libpq-dev).

 The problem is quite easy to respolve: Please make Build-Depends on
libpq-dev versioned, I propse to use (>= 8.2~beta1-1) which according to
the changelog is the first 8.2 release that was uploaded and according
to snapshot.debian.net the first version that produced libpq5 instead of
libpq4.

 So long, and thanks.
Rhonda
