Hmm. Which user is pg_dump connecting as? (The -S switch does not
answer this question, btw; that only determines what's emitted into
the output script.) I would expect behavior like this if you are
connecting as someone who's neither a superuser nor the sequence
owner. Check PGUSER and USER environment variables.
