As a temporary work around, just add a link in /usr/lib from /usr/lib/libdb-5.1.so -> libdb-5.2.so:

That will bring postfix back up until the package is updated. Then don't forget to remove the link later...
Please don't do that, this is a bad workaround ! You should rebuild the package instead, it is very easy with ABS.

Why? The worst you could do is have pacman complain that the file(s) already exists in the file system. You then only have to remove it and you're good. Still the best way is to build/repackage but the link works as weel.
