Hmmm you're right, they are the same now. I don't know what I did this
week, but I was pretty sure the files were different.
Nevermind then, as this saves time and effort.

Ah OK that explains the different sums.
Would it be an idea to make it a (default) configuration option for
pg_dump to include a timestamp?
You could work around it by disgarding the first X bytes when
checksumming. Any idea what X would be?
Best regards,
