Yes, it's ldd.
ldd: work/postgresql-7.1.3/src/interfaces/libpq/libpq.so: not a dynamic executable

(but, of course, it's a link :)
% ll work/postgresql-7.1.3/src/interfaces/libpq/libpq.so*
lrwxrwxrwx  1 are  portsmas     12 Jan 25 21:16 work/postgresql-7.1.3/src/interfaces/libpq/libpq.so -> libpq.so.2.1
lrwxrwxrwx  1 are  portsmas     12 Jan 25 21:16 work/postgresql-7.1.3/src/interfaces/libpq/libpq.so.2 -> libpq.so.2.1
-rwxr-xr-x  1 are  portsmas  64849 Jan 25 21:16 work/postgresql-7.1.3/src/interfaces/libpq/libpq.so.2.1

and:
% ldd work/postgresql-7.1.3/src/interfaces/libpq/libpq.so.2.1
ldd: work/postgresql-7.1.3/src/interfaces/libpq/libpq.so.2.1: not a dynamic executable

% file work/postgresql-7.1.3/src/interfaces/libpq/libpq.so.2.1
work/postgresql-7.1.3/src/interfaces/libpq/libpq.so.2.1: FreeBSD/i386 compact demand paged shared library not stripped

So ldd doesn't work for libraries, only executables...
