Actually, reading the Postgres docs further, there's a faint hope.
Try something like:

pgsql_servers = "host=192.168.45.16 sslcert=client.crt sslkey=client.key sslmode=verify-ca sslrootcert=root.crt/exim/thepguser/"

(We're still using the older API, but it appears to have a forward-compat
feature. This might be pgsql-library version dependent; I'm looking
at the 8.3 docs)
