This is due to redhat including an existing postgresql.jar file in the 
classpath or somewhere else in your environment.  To build a new version 
you need to remove this from you compile environment.  The other 
alternative is to simply download a prebuilt binary from 
http://jdbc.postgresql.org/download.html
