Right, but in 8.3 and even before, different people have been
putting out binary builds with different choices :-(. I'm not sure
it's going to magically get better in 8.4. If Bruce gets anywhere
with pg_migrator before 8.4 final, there will be a very strong
temptation to stick with whatever one was using before, so as to
avoid forcing a dump/reload...
