This is not a bug.

Please, try to use supported version of PostgreSQL. 8.0 is unsupported
maybe ten years.

psql run in fault tolerant mode where errors are ignored. So you can just

drop table sometable;
create table sometable(...);

It should to works. The error messages you can ignore.

can you move data to modern database and do deduplication there?

Without MIN on ctid you cannot to do it. You can write a extension in C
