If the release notes between 7.2.1 and 7.2.7 did not curl your toes,
then you didn't understand what you were reading.  There are numerous
serious data-loss-grade bugs in 7.2.1.

Update to 7.2.7 first and then see if you still have trouble loading
this dump.  If you do, I'd be interested to see more details ... but
7.2.1 isn't supportable.
