"user" is a reserved word in 7.1. Either rename the database before
upgrading to 7.1, or do the upgrade by hand and edit the database, putting
double quote marks around the occurances of "user" as a database name.

Switch back to the pg_hba.conf file you used with 6.5. 7.1 has a new
authentication method "peer" which 6.5 doesn't understand and which 7.1's
default configuration employs IIRC.
