for pg_dump

This si my first look at the pg-code, so it may not comply with the
coding-standards. I haven't coded in C for a while either, so if someone
finds a better way to implement this, go ahead, but this patch works for
me
with 7.4beta3.

comments are welcome.

If it's ok, I'll remove my debuging statements and provide a cleaner
patch.
