don't know for sure if it is windows to linux but we moved to 8.2 that
was install on windows and moved to 8.3.1 on Ubuntu using the compiled
version from Ubuntu
We had minor annoying problem with implicit data conversion no longer
happens
Had several pl/pgsql functions called each other where a programmer got
lazy to not making sure the variable typed matched the parameter type so
we get an error yelling at us can't find function due to data type
mismatch . Its was very easy to fix.
There is allot changes to how Text searches work and the indexes
