You will have to download the entire PostgreSQL source; the smallest available
package is "postgresql-base-x.x.tar.gz" which doesn't include the docs. etc.

This page:
http://www.ca.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/7.3/postgres/install-procedure.html
contains info on installing the standard client apps without the server.
