The reasoning there is that 8.4 is where we added
pg_get_function_arguments(), so this dumping code should work against that
server version or later. (Oh, memo to self: test that.) It's true that
pre-9.4 servers are not going to produce any useful extra info by using
pg_get_function_arguments() on an aggregate; but the general idea of this
patch is to make the aggregate-related code look more like the
plain-function-related code, so using the same version cutoffs in both
cases seemed to make sense.
