 Does that leave Red Hat the main (only?) commercial supporter of PostgreSQL?

Heh,

Hardly, there is PGSQL, Inc. and Command Prompt, Inc. (my company). We
have been around for almost four years and have provided custom
development and support for PostgreSQL (starting with Postgres95)
since that time.

There are also several other companies listed on the .org site that
provide support.

You should check out our up-coming book, Practical PostgreSQL:

 Not that it really needs expensive support.  I'm finding that it just works.  
 Maybe THAT was the problem...  :-)

 Yep.  I really thought Great Bridge was one of the few Open Source companies
 that would really thrive, at least once the economy picks up again.  This was
 a real shock.
