encoding problems

I'm not sure how to ask this question.  I have written a function, and with

PostgreSQL 8.0.13 I can do a "\df+" and see something like this under
Source 
Code:

	DECLARE
		result text;	
	BEGIN
		result := (SELECT SUBSTRING(fname FROM 1 FOR 1) ||
						SUBSTRING(mname FROM 1 FOR 1) ||
						SUBSTRING(lname FROM 1 FOR 1)
						FROM employees WHERE id = empid);
		RETURN result;
	END;


If I create the same function on my computer running PostgreSQL 8.3.0 and
try 
the \df+ then the Source Code shows:

\x09DECLARE                                                   
                                                                          
                       
\x09\x09result text;                                          
                                                                          
                        : 
\x09                                                          
                                                                          
                        : 
\x09BEGIN                                                     
                                                                          
                        : 
\x09\x09result := (SELECT SUBSTRING(fname FROM 1 FOR 1) ||    
                                                                          
                        : 
\x09\x09\x09\x09\x09\x09SUBSTRING(mname FROM 1 FOR 1) ||      
                                                                          
                        : 
\x09\x09\x09\x09\x09\x09SUBSTRING(lname FROM 1 FOR 1)         
                                                                          
                        : 
\x09\x09\x09\x09\x09\x09FROM employees WHERE id = empid);     
                                                                          
                        : 
\x09\x09RETURN result;                                        
                                                                          
                        : 
\x09END;      


I've tried changing the database encoding and some other things, but can't

seem to fix this.
