Yeah, I got a permission error when I tried this:
/usr/local/pgsql/bin$ ./pg_dump -Ft -s -c -v -f postgres schema_clean.tar1
pg_dump: error: could not open TOC file "postgres" for output: Permission denied
So you'd have to either make the binary writable or use "sudo" or something
to get in this situation, which is hopefully uncommon.
