You need the Postgresql development libraries.
Try:
yum install postgresql-devel
or whatever is specific to your OS.

I'm trying to get Ruby version 2.0.0-p353 to run on Nginx 1.4.7 on CentOS 6.5. Everything installs as expected, but when I get to the point of running
bundle install
I get the following error:Gem::Ext::BuildError: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
