According to man-page of syslog.conf the name of facility is "local0", 
but not "LOCAL0":
----
   The facility describes the part of the system generating the message, 
and
    is one of the following keywords: auth, authpriv, console, cron, 
daemon,
    ftp, kern, lpr, mail, mark, news, ntp, security, syslog, user, uucp and
    local0 through local7.
----

Also it might be that syslog do not create this file, try to create it 
by self:
# touch /var/log/pgsql

With regards,
  Alexander Vysokovskih
