this does not look like a postgres bug to me.
Offhand, it looks like your database loads custom functions from the
shared object library /usr/lib/pgsql_clcrypt.so which was probably built
for your older 7.4... you'd either need to rebuild that library to be
8.2 compatible, or remove the CREATE FUNCTION statements that reference
it (and modify any SQL code you have which calls these
blowfish_encrypt() etc functions...)
