I can confirm that postgresql works ok with DBCP. All of my persistent
components call the same connection code, whatever the database. It is doing
the following :

public static Connection Connect(String resourcename)
 throws javax.naming.NamingException, java.sql.SQLException
 {
  Context initContext = new InitialContext();
  Context envContext  = (Context)initContext.lookup("java:/comp/env");
  DataSource ds = (DataSource)envContext.lookup(resourcename);
  return ds.getConnection();
 }

The resourcename passed in will be something like "jdbc/asl". An example
server.xml entry looks
like :

<ResourceParams name="jdbc/asl">
  <parameter>
    <name>factory</name>
    <value>org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSourceFactory</value>
  </parameter>
  <parameter>
    <name>driverClassName</name>
    <value>org.postgresql.Driver</value>
  </parameter>
  <parameter>
    <name>url</name>
    <value>jdbc:postgresql://132.1.6.8:5432/asl</value> <!-- asl is a
database that has been created in postgres -->
  </parameter>
  <parameter>
    <name>username</name>
    <value>bsuser</value> <!-- not the real user I'm using -->
  </parameter>
  <parameter>
    <name>password</name>
    <value>bspassword</value> <!-- not the real password I'm using -->
  </parameter>
  <parameter>
    <name>maxActive</name>
    <value>20</value>
  </parameter>
  <parameter>
    <name>maxIdle</name>
    <value>10</value>
  </parameter>
  <parameter>
    <name>maxWait</name>
    <value>-1</value>
  </parameter>
</ResourceParams>


Hope this helps.
