Don't think you have to 'recompile' anything.  I assune that you mean
that you installed php4-mysql and now want to also (?) install the
PostgreSQL modules.

apt-cache search php |grep pgsql yields
php3-cgi-pgsql - PostgreSQL module for PHP3 (use with php3-cgi)
php3-pgsql - PostgreSQL module for PHP3 (use with php3)
php4-pgsql - PostgreSQL module for php4

So I would load php4-pgsql and make the proper changes in 
/etc/php4/apache/php.ini to select the required module.

NOTE:  I have not used postgresql and don't know if you can enable
both mysql and postgresql in the php.ini file at the same time.  It
seems likely you can but...?

:-) HTH, YMMV, HAND :-)
