I need to move some databases written in Psql v8.4 to the stable

You can try connecting a 8.3 client to the 8.4 server, then running pg_dump from that 8.3 client. That's a common approach for dump/restore when moving forward a version, and it may resolve your issue when moving backward one too. The 8.3 client shouldn't dump anything the 8.3 server doesn't know how to restore.
