Well, on that note msvcr71.dll is available on the site along with 
libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll.

The DBD-Pg ppm is now also available with the ssl dlls included:

5.8: ppm install http://dbdpgppm.projects.postgresql.org/DBD-Pg-5.8s.ppd
5.6: ppm install http://dbdpgppm.projects.postgresql.org/DBD-Pg-5.6s.ppd

Installing libeay and ssleay in the same location as Pg.dll works for me 
(anyone who has a problem let me know).

However, placing msvcr71.dll in there did not. Apparently it needs to be 
in the path or current directory, so it will not be packaged into a ppm 
(unless someone knows of a way to make that work).
