There are some more non-free ones (although Windows only)

DeZign: http://www.datanamic.com/dezign/index.html
HappyFish: http://www.polderij.nl/happyfish/products.html
DDS-Pro: http://www.dds-pro.com/
dbConstructor: http://www.dbconstructor.com/home/home.aspx

All are priced in the range €150 to €350

I had (a quick) look at them, and DeZign looks quite nice. It is more feature
richt than Power*Architect especially when it comes to a full-blown round-trip
engineering and it can reverse engineer a model from SQL scripts (haven't tested
that with PG scripts though).
I also like the ability to create sub-models which keeps larger models clean.
