No, I didn't change anything. The only thing I did is I had copied the
proper .h files and libpq.a file to specified directories on my
development machine. I must compile my apps for various versions of
postgres (and some other rdbms as well) in the same time, so I can't
directly use c-interface files installed by postgresql itself. I didn't
change my makefile at all. So I think the problem may be with
compilation of files included in new version of libpq.a (PostgreSQL
8.0.3 from FC4).

Thanks a lot, it was really helpful. If anybody is interested in this is
a part of command for linker which has given me a success:
-lpq -lpam -lssl -lcrypto -lkrb5 -lz -lreadline -ltermcap -lcrypt
-lresolv -lnsl -ldl -lpthread -lgssapi_krb5 -lcom_err -lk5crypto
-lkrb5support -lgcc_eh
For postgresql 8.0.1 and earlier linking only with with -lpq was sufficient.
The executable file growed fom 1.0MB (8.0.1) to 2.3MB (8.0.3) and I'm
afraid it may not work without recompiling under other Linux
distributions (I will test it's behaviour on FC3, RH9 & SUSE 9.3 soon)
due to many additional shared libraries used. So I'd like to get rid of
extra libs if it is possible of course, and still have no idea how to do
this.
Than's again for your help.
