I see maybe an issue with those who use run off usb drive, but have data
installed on disk. They won't be able to upgrade by swapping the usb drive
any more. But they can update and then swap the usb drive.

I can't think of any big issues with just running the new version of
postgres. I think the biggest reason to support both is to make upgrading
easier for those with 8.3 already running.
