No, you can't yet migrate without OIDs. You could possible remove them
with some SQL like:
CREATE TABLE xxx WITHOUT OIDS;
INSERT INTO xxx (SELECT * FROM yyy);
DROP TABLE yyy;
ALTER TABLE xxx RENAME TO yyy;

Yes, it is a touch finicky. Can you supply the first few lines of the
file and your target table definition?
