On the "good news" side, 8.1 support should work out fine, as the
internals (e.g. - stored procs) do not vary between 8.1 and 8.3.

But the line of code that should be recognizing version "80300" evidently isn't.

This is the bit of logic that should be catching your version:  (slonik.c)
	else if ((adminfo->pg_version >= 80100) && adminfo->pg_version < 80400)	/* 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3 */

Actually, there's one thing that makes me suspicious about this: your
message differs from what it should.

It should read:

./upgrade.slonik:5: Possible unsupported PostgreSQL version (80300) 8.3, defaulting to 8.1 support

But perhaps I'm being overpicky...
