On Mac, pgAdmin will only auto-add servers that are registered in
/etc/postgres-reg.ini. As far as I know, only the EDB installers do
this, and as you're using Fink obviously the server shouldn't be
auto-added, leading to a minor mystery.

If I had to guess, I'd say your 8.3 installation was from the EDB
installer, and you didn't use the uninstaller to remove it, so pgAdmin
thinks it's still there. If that seems right, just delete the
appropriate lines in /etc/postgres-reg.ini, then delete the unwanted
server in pgAdmin.
