It was whichever one was in the ports tree, and currently is in the ports tree. 
Current update:

1. I deinstalled 8.4.9 completely, 
2. I deinstalled PostGIS completey,
3. I installed 9.1

When I tried to initialise the PSQL upon startup, I saw the following:

dirty:/home/dheerajchand# sudo  /usr/local/etc/rc.d/postgresql initdb
postgresql_enable=YES: not found
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "pgsql".
This user must also own the server process.

The database cluster will be initialized with locale C.
The default text search configuration will be set to "english".

creating directory /usr/local/pgsql/data ... ok
creating subdirectories ... ok
selecting default max_connections ... 10
selecting default shared_buffers ... 400kB

creating template1 database in /usr/local/pgsql/data/base/1 ... FATAL:  could 
not create semaphores: No space left on device
DETAIL:  Failed system call was semget(1, 17, 03600).
HINT:  This error does *not* mean that you have run out of disk space.  It 
occurs when either the system limit for the maximum number of semaphore sets 
(SEMMNI), or the system wide maximum number of semaphores (SEMMNS), would be 
exceeded.  You need to raise the respective kernel parameter.  Alternatively, 
reduce PostgreSQL's consumption of semaphores by reducing its max_connections 
parameter.
        The PostgreSQL documentation contains more information about 
configuring your system for PostgreSQL.

initdb: removing data directory "/usr/local/pgsql/data"

Now, this is on FreeBSD in a jail. I have no idea how to make the changes it's 
asking for in order to initialise. Any suggestions?
