Well, there was one other table with a sequence as a primary key and that was 
lost also. Otherwise nothing else was wrong. I went through a dump/restore 
cycle after fixing things and it all worked.

I do have a question, though, I fixed things as indicated above: id integer DEFAULT nextval('vault_id_seq') NOT NULL,
Dump gave backid integer DEFAULT nextval('vault_id_seq'::text) NOT NULL,
That "text" seems odd. Should I change it?
