As a matter of policy, backports are made from Debian testing. Continued maintenance of PG 8.2 packages is not really backporting, since there is nothing to backport from.
While that's certainly true, I think there's enough of a reason for an exception. Otherwise the efforts to backport any newer Postgres major version could be saved entirely, because you never known if it suddenly ceases from testing and backports.
So, please, either decide to backport a Postgres major version and continue to update it even if it gets dropped from testing *or* don't backport it at all.
