The documentation in the MediaWiki wiki isn't always up to date, I suspect.

FWIW there's a file "includes/DatabasePostgreSQL.php" in the CVS head
versions of MediaWiki which has at the top:
/**
* This is PostgreSQL database abstraction layer.
*
* As it includes more generic version for DB functions,
* than MySQL ones, some of them should be moved to parent
* Database class.
*
* STATUS: Working PG implementation of MediaWiki
* TODO: Installer support
*
* @package MediaWiki
*/
(There's also "includes/DatabaseOracle.php" but it doesn't say
anything about status).
