Hey,
 
I've also notice one difference between my 8.1 instance and my 8.2 instance.  I run a ps and on the 8.1 instance there is a 'stats buffer process' and in the 8.2 instance there is no 'stats buffer instance'
 
Does that give you anymore reasons as to why the autovacuum is not working?
 
:)

How sure are you of that?  Check pg_stat_all_tables to see if the
last_autovacuum column is changing.
