Hmm, apparently the source isn't *really* 8.3 ... but it must claim to
be, else pg_dump wouldn't try to send it that command.  I think you're
confused about the version situation, and you've probably also got some
messy combination of stock PG server and edb-customized pg_dump, or
perhaps vice versa.  You're going to have to go ask them for help if
you can't get it sorted by triple-checking the versions.
