Wrong. It does appear in the documentation, and it can also be disabled.
http://developer.postgresql.org/docs/postgres/app-pgdump.html says:
-X disable-dollar-quoting
--disable-dollar-quoting
This option disables the use of dollar quoting for function bodies, and
forces them to be quoted using SQL standard string syntax.
