It would have changed automatically if the default expression were what
it's supposed to be, namely nextval('sequencename'::regclass). What
you've got there is a text constant, which of course is static.
I haven't consumed enough caffeine today to recall the details, but
I think you could have ended up with default expressions like the above
if the database had been dumped and reloaded from 8.0 or earlier.
nextval(regclass) was introduced in 8.1 precisely to solve this type
of problem.

Not especially :-(. You're going to need to run around and change them
all to the right name. Be sure to lose the ::text bit while at it,
so it works right the next time.
