Sounds like we are getting close. From strace:
stat64("/home/pramsey/pgtest/8.0/bin/lib/postgresql/plpgsql", 0xbfffe480) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("/home/pramsey/pgtest/8.0/bin/lib/postgresql/plpgsql.so", 0xbfffe480) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat64("$libdir/plpgsql", 0xbfffe540) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
I started the database from "/home/pramsey/pgtest/8.0/bin" using "./pg_ctl start -D /home/pramsey/pgtest/8.0/data"
Judging from the behavior I have posted to the list of "pg_config --pkglibdir", if I started it from any *other* location at all then things would have worked.

Where do they think it is?
A useful way to check would be to strace the backend while you're executing "createlang" or another command that tries to load a dynamic library. The file names that it tries to stat() would be good evidence.
Also, how are you starting the postmaster? I believe that current sources will try to locate $libdir via a relative path from where the postmaster executable is. We've fixed some bugs in that area recently, but maybe there are more.
