One possibility is to fix ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN to maintain the same
column ordering in parents and children.
COPY with specified columns may in fact be the best way to deal with
that particular issue, if pg_dump is all we care about fixing. However
there are a bunch of things that have a problem with it, not only
pg_dump. See thread over in committers about functions and inheritance.
