That's fine, but it doesn't touch on the issue I'm talking about, which
is that zlib != gzip.

BTW I noticed that that also affects the pg_dump file itself; 002
changes the file format to say "gzip", but that's wrong for -Fc, which
does not use gzip headers, which could be surprising to someone who
specified "gzip".
