If it is not too much data, the easiest would be to use pg_dump to
dump the database (or just the table), edit the definition, and feed
the changed file to psql in order to get the data back. Or you can
create a different table with the correct structure, copy the data
there, drop the old table, rename the new one to the correct one.

There is no 8k row limit anymore. But if there were, you would modify a
#define in the source code and recompile (check the docs for more
details).
