Yeah, that's still on my should-fix-for-7.5 list (and I think Fabien was
going to, or already did, submit some ACL-hacking code to help).  That
is, ALTER OWNER should adjust the ACL so that grants made by/to the
former owner now appear to be by/to the new owner.

However, there's still the problem that a dump from a 7.4 or older
database might exhibit the inconsistent ACL entries.  Not very sure
how to cope ...
