No.  The only databases usually supported by the base install are the DBM
family of Unix databases.

PostgreSQL has a number of sources of Python modules:-
- PyGreSQL (included with the PostgreSQL sources, build with Distutils)
- PyPgSQL  (pypgsql.sf.net)
- PoPy     (popy.sf.net)
- Psycopg  (psycopg.sf.net - builds with configure script)
