You have to specify both RPMs at once during the update:

rpm -Uvh postgresql-server-7.1beta4-1.i386.rpm postgresql-7.1beta4-1.i386.rpm

should do the trick, unless the beta-rpm does not provide a libpq.so.2.1 (at
least with a build from CVS libpq.so.2.1 is installed, so I guess rpm is
clever enough to provide this one as well). libpq.so.2 is just a symlink to
libpq.so.2.1
