To use the hex value 0x55, do I need to enclose it in single quotes?

Yes, you want 256K occurrences of the byte value 0x55 and nothing
else.
I'm also wondering if, after I create the dummy files, and pg_dump
works, I could restore an old pg_dumpall file and then insert any
data that aren't there from the pg_dumps.
It'd be a good idea to do as much cross-checking as you can, since
it's highly probable that the dumped data will be at least partly
wrong.
No, I'm afraid updating to 8.2.latest won't get you out of this.
It might possibly prevent a recurrence.
