Update to 8.1.9 *soon* unless you want to be victim of a nasty autovac
bug. And in case you already were (which you won't know until your
database starts causing you hard-to-fix headaches), I suggest you
connect to template0 and run VACUUM FREEZE for precaution.

Examine the pg_stat views, though I am not sure if the vacuum columns
were already in 8.1. In any case, in 8.1 Xid wraparound is tracked
per-database, so you need database-wide vacuums. In 8.2 it is per table
so it is easier to keep up to date.
