In 7.3 this is pretty easy: look in the pg_constraint table for a 'p'
constraint for the table.  If you find one, 'conkey' lists the column
numbers of the key columns.  In prior versions you'd need to look in
pg_index instead.  (Actually the pg_index method still works, but it's
messier.)

See the "System Catalogs" chapter of the documentation.
