pg_dump would issue "CREATE OR REPLACE LANGUAGE plpgsql" which would
succeed just fine, since it'd be issued by a superuser.
I think the potential downsides of that are significantly smaller than
having a special case that excludes plpgsql altogether --- for one
example, it would still succeed in a custom installation that had been
changed so that plpgsql wasn't installed by default.
BTW, another problem I just noticed with the current kluge is that it
fails to transfer any nondefault permissions that might have been
attached to plpgsql.
