That error means when reading a seekable source, the file pointer
ftello returns doesn't consistent with how many bytes pg_restore has
read, or ftello returned an error. Considering that the path is very
ancient, the latter likely to happen. If the failure is reproducible,
running pg_restore with strace could show something helpful.
