Yes, use lenny-backports. The reason postgresql-8.4 is not available in debian stable is that they went to feature freeze before 8.4 was released. Then debian has a very conservative approach to a stable distribution, the same way PostgreSQL back branches are only updated with fixes, never with new features. Here new feature would be either a new package or a new version of a package if the upgrade ain't for security purposes. There's no reason to avoid lenny-backports. All the more when considering PostgreSQL-8.4, which is stable software.
