The offending source code is in pg_dump.c line 3953, where at the lack 
of an underlying conversion function and thus no clear namespace 
relationship pg_dump simply ignores the cast.

IMHO a binary compatible cast should be dumped if one or both namespaces 
of the underlying data types is included in the dump.

I classify this problem as a bug. Objections?
