Ah, now I see the problem, I think. As was noted upstream having a user
tablespace in the PGDATA would seem to be the issue.
If you do SELECT * from pg_tablespace in the 9.0 install before moving
and after you will see that spclocation does not change and points to
the original PGDATA/drupal_dbspace. Creating the Postgres 9.3 instance
in the old location then basically slides the new under the old. This is
where you get this error:
Copying user relation files
.../pgsql/data/drupal_dbspace/PG_9.0_201008051/24659/11790
error while copying relation "pg_catalog.pg_largeobject"

such file or directory
Failure, exiting
Postgres is going to /usr/local/pgsql/data/drupal_dbspace/ to look for
the 9.0 files instead of /usr/local/pgsql_90/data/drupal_dbspace/ and is
trying to copy them as 9.3 versions into the new default location which
has the same path. Since the new
/usr/local/pgsql/data/drupal_dbspace/PG_9.0_201008051 is empty it is
failing.
Not sure of the best solution, others may have better ideas.
On thing that came to mind is to give pg_upgrade what it wants, the 9.0
tablespace in the default
location(/usr/local/pgsql/data/drupal_dbspace/). In other words make a
symlink:
/usr/local/pgsql/data/drupal_dbspace/PG_9.0_201008051
to
/usr/local/pgsql_90/data/drupal_dbspace/PG_9.0_201008051
FYI, some testing showed that playing around with spclocation in
pg_tablespace is not recommended.
