Quick thought --- did you restart the Postgres service after upgrading
openssl? If not, your server is still using the old library version,
while pg_dump would be running the new version on the client side.
I don't know exactly what was done to openssl in the last round of
revisions, but maybe there is some sort of version compatibility issue.
Also, you really ought to be running something newer than PG 8.4.9.
