I would say upgrade to the latest.  There are features and performance increases in the 9.x series.

You need to upgrade PostgreSQL. However, you do not have to do it at the same time as upgrading to Java 7. I would recommend doing the two separately:

* Upgrade PgJDBC and test your app with that on the old PostgreSQL
* Now upgrade PostgreSQL, test the application on the new PostgreSQL
* Finally, upgrade to the new Java release
