Hey guys,
Is there any way we could build a static version of the 7.4 pg_dump, to
make it easy to dump existing databases using the 7.4 dump? Otherwise,
it's quite difficult to arrange to have two different postgres
installations, etc...

No, the other way 'round. 7.3 pg_dump or psql would work with a 7.4
libpq.so, but I don't believe 7.4 pg_dump or psql would work with a
7.3
In any case, can't 7.3 pg_dump use the 7.4 libpq?
If not then the major version should be bumped.
My point being that I would like to actually preserve my cluster
settings and stuff when dumping...
So it's pg_dump, not libpq, that's important to me.
