How was your migration done? pg_dump of data _and_ schema, then `psql
-f' to restore it to the 8.4 database? Some other way?
Was the dump file edited?
Were any other users connected to the DB being restored to at the time?
If you try the restore again to a fresh database (create a new one just
for testing) does the issue happen again?
If so, can you potentially grant one of the Pg team access to a spare
server with the data and problem DB on it, or supply them with a dump
for testing?
Can you supply the full log, or at least some more context?

CREATE INDEX (without CONCURRENTLY) takes a lock on the table that
blocks INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE (but not SELECT), yes.
