I do not see anything obviously wrong.
Two suggestions.
1) Use the 9.2 version of pg_dump. Newer versions know about changes in
data handling and are also backward compatible(to 7.0).
2) As of 8.3(I believe) the -b switch is redundant for whole database dumps.

When you do the above dump are there large objects in the 9.2 database
in spite of the errors?
