PostgreSQL went from users to roles in 8.1. You can just use create user 
instead of create role to get past your problem.

In terms of upgrading to 8.2, there is a pretty good chance that you 
will gain nothing by doing so. 8.1.x is a perfectly stable, and fast 
release. It has also been in the wild a great deal longer than 8.2 and 
thusly suffers from the positive of wide installation testing.
