IIRC, the way to do this is to compile 8.3 for your platform,
including the pg_standby contrib module, and then just copy the binary
over to you system. Since it doesn't integrate directly, it will work
against 8.2, save for the %r macro (for removing unneeded xlog
segments). If you really need the %r capabilities, you might want to
look at OmniPITR, which doesn't require compiling and implements that
feature.
