I think you've got the "7.2 or later" theme in your patch mixed up. The
version number you're evaluating is the version of the database you're
dumping. The feature you're adding is dependent on the version of the
database you're restoring into. The version of the database you're
restoring into is always >= the pg_dump version. Thus, you don't need any
version checks. Plus, I think this patch is going into 7.3, no?
