There are (at least) two independently developed pgdiff applications,
they can be found at:

http://pgdiff.sourceforge.net/

http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/pgdiff/projdisplay.php

I did not try the first one, but the latter one worked on some of my
datas, but fails on others. I filed a bug report some time ago, but got
no answer, so I'm afraid this tool currently is unmaintained:
http://gborg.postgresql.org/project/pgdiff/bugs/bugupdate.php?895

But maybe a pg_dump --schema-only on all the databases, and then
manually diffing the files may already fulfil your needs.
