It looks to me like you created this database by loading a dump from an
older (pre-7.3) Postgres? If so, there are not any dependency links
from those triggers to the columns involved, and so dropping the columns
doesn't cause the triggers to go away. You'll need to drop the triggers
by hand.
There is a contrib script (contrib/adddepend) that tries to add the
missing dependencies in an upgraded database. I've never used it and
am not sure how reliable it is, but it probably beats trying to identify
the trouble spots by hand.
See the 7.3 release notes for more about this issue.
