From my point of view Tcl/Tk would be the fastest (for development)
thought powerfull interface to PostgreSQL because it offers also a nice
and easy to handle GUI interface. Source is "open", can be easility
viewed by others, if not compiled with tcl/tk compilers. PgAccess (
http://www.flex.ro/pgaccess ) proves it !

For cgi programs I'll vote for perl for it's power and versatility when
GUI isn't needed. Also python could be a strong alternative.

Java would be of course the "master" of interfaces, when portability
would be your first goal. 

You have the choice !
