I have had the same problem as Lars (I dumped on my laptop's 8.4 and
couldn't restore on the server's 8.3). But I thought the other way should
work - apparently not. You dont in fact need to change the whole server, it
is only the pg_restore that needs replacement. I solved my own problem by
accessing the server from the PgAdmin on my laptop, thus using the 8.4
restore to restore to add data to the 8.3 database (at least that's what I
think I did, it's been some time...)
