No. It will then try to read the information from stdin. See
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/static/app-pgrestore.html, under
Optinos.

Yes, I beleive so. Same problems are present for at least -W also, and
also present on pg_restore. so yes, that should be fixed. I'll try to
put together a patch unless beaten to it.
