Everything went smoothly except the permissions of the directory /var/run/postgresql with the domain socket .s.PGSQL.5432. This dir had permissions of 770, owned by postgres.postgres, so no mere mortals could access it. I have changed this to 775 and can now access it. Didn't 8.2 put these in /tmp? Maybe this was a gentoo thing.
http://bugs.gentoo.org/236546 talks about what changed and shows the associated warning, which I'm guessing you didn't see. You can move it back to /tmp if you want.
