Are you sure that the version of pg_upgrade you are using is from 9.3
and not 9.2? You should always use pg_upgrade from the new server
version.
By looking at contrib/pg_upgrade/server.c in 9.3 code, the code takes
into account unix_socket_directories that has been renamed in 9.3:
/* Have a sockdir? Tell the postmaster. */
if (cluster->sockdir)
snprintf(socket_string + strlen(socket_string),
sizeof(socket_string) - strlen(socket_string),
" -c %s='%s'",
(GET_MAJOR_VERSION(cluster->major_version) < 903) ?
"unix_socket_directory" : "unix_socket_directories",
cluster->sockdir);
So no problem on this side.
