You don't need superuser privs to create a schema, only CREATE privs on
the database.  Why would you have revoked CREATE-schema privs from the
database owner??  Seems downright weird.

pg_dump does have some known problems with situations where a
previously-held right has been revoked.  I guess this is another one for
the to-do list.
