Yup, this is clearly an error --- thanks for spotting it!  I've pushed
a fix for this and related mistakes.

Just out of curiosity, do you have a concrete test case where it failed
that way?  AFAICS the emitted SQL would be like

SET search_path = schema1, pg_catalog;

CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY somedict (...);

COMMENT ON TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY somedict IS '...';

SET search_path = schema2, pg_catalog;

CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY somedict (...);

COMMENT ON TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY somedict IS '...';

so it should accidentally work anyway.  It's possible that a parallel
restore would get it wrong, or that a schema-selective restore would
omit comments it should include, but I couldn't reproduce a failure
in simple cases.
        regards, tom lane
