Apparently you already had a 7.4.8 postgres installed on your machine.
Most versions of Linux do have PG in them. You probably want to remove
the 7.4.8 files to avoid confusion like this.

That's because that version of pg_dump is too old to understand the 8.1
server's catalog layout. There's a good reason why it refused to dump
from a newer server by default; it knows it probably ain't gonna work.
