Hi!

Reading the archives I understand this is a problem of postgres version
prior 7.1, and I'm experiencing the very same error as Steve Riley
reported last month. I saw that the suggestion was to use 7.2, but I'm
not sure you meant dump 7.1 database from 7.1 backend using 7.2 pg_dump.
We have approx. 1.5 Gb of data in a 7.1 database, and would not like to
loose it, but cannot dump it with 7.1. If this is the way to go, please
confirm that.
Thank you for your time.

Roland Szabo
