Ok, I diff'ed both and guess what:

So we now have confirmed that the problem is the hierarchical queries
patch.

I guess your build with the "use flag" wasn't successful.  I think you
have two choices:

1. really build with the patch installed, and dump your data using that

2. Make an update of pg_rewrite in order to get rid of that.  I think
this is easier, but you should be very careful not to corrupt the table.
I'd start by doing a CREATE TABLE AS to copy the contents of pg_rewrite
somewhere else, just in case you screw it up.  Then come up with some
clever UPDATE query to remove the extraneous ":hierClause <> " part.
