Bruce,
Assuming a contrib module *hasn't* changed its API, does pg_migrator
link against the 8.4 version of the module's .so, or the old 8.3 version?
8.4 version, or whatever is in the 8.4 lib, which should be 8.4.
So, here's what we need for 8.3 --> 8.4 for contrib modules:
1) make a list of contrib modules which do not convert cleanly (testers?)
2) document these.
3) give pg_migrator some hackish way to install 8.4 contrib modules from
source before copying over the database.
4) set pg_migrator to ignore duplicate object warnings if it does the above.
Note that we expect NOT to have this issue for 8.4-->8.5, since we'll
have a full module infrastructure by then. Really!
