Depends what you mean by 'clustered'. We run PostgreSQL in a HA environment (which some might call a 'cluster') with 2 PostgreSQL servers running their own PostgreSQL instance, but with the ability to automatically failover to their partner using Heartbeat (from linux-ha.org). The data lives on NFS servers and so is available to both hosts. Consider this a "poor man's HA cluster", altho it works reasonably well, and all software elements are free.
