Use the pg_dump from the target (i.e. newer) pgsql.  I.e. if going
from 8.3.8 to 8.4.1, use the pg_dump that comes with 8.4.1 to dump the
8.3.8 database.

I usually just do it like so:

(First migrate accounts:)
pg_dumpall --globals -h oldserver | psql -h newserver postgres
(then each database:)
createdb -h newserver dbname
pg_dump -h oldserver dbname | psql -h newserver dbname
(repeat as needed, save output for error messages)
