1: Slony 1 V2 isn't really ready for prime time yet. I installed it a
few months ago in production on 8.3.8 and it promptly started causing
phantom locks to appear that hung the whole db and replication engine
requiring db restarts. We had more downtime in a week than we'd had
in the previous year.

2: Are you sure you're using the latest libpq in that instance and
that you don't have an old one installed somehow somewhere?
