but does heimdal provide the libkrb5.so.3???
rpm -ql heimdal
rpm -ql heimdal-lib
etc.
maybe you can compile postgresql from source with heimdal installed, then it would use it's libraries.
Here you can find rpm's for all kind of distro's, the Suse ones can eb found unsing OpenSuse, no official ones for SLES 9.

That is ONLY valid forL libkrb5.so.X -> libkrb5.so.X.y.z
With the same X, not if the library is named: libkrb5.so.2.2.1 f.e.
The numbers are a version number for the library, the first one indicates (mostly) the API involved, differing numbers ==> not compatible, the 2nd number means the existing interface still works but there are new functions added the thirds is a bugfix number.
There is a tool for this it's called ldconfig. It will check all library paths available and add the symlinks if they are required and are missing.
Just issue as root the command: 'ldconfig'

krb5 is the kerberos library.
Did you also install the kerberos rpm's? ()krb5-x.y.z-....rpm
