Per the 8.1 release notes:
It might be necessary to set add_missing_from to true
in order to load an existing dump file, if the dump contains any
views or rules created using the implicit-FROM syntax.
This should be a one-time annoyance, because
PostgreSQL 8.1 will convert
such views and rules to standard explicit-FROM syntax.
Subsequent dumps will therefore not have the problem.
Going from 7.4 to 8.3 in one jump is a bit ambitious; you should expect
to learn about a few compatibility issues the hard way. Start by
reading the release notes for each version in between, *particularly*
the compatibility warnings.
