Yes it does the same thing:

$ gunzip < mydb.dump.20070819.gz | pg_restore -v -O -d mydb
pg_restore: [archiver] did not find magic string in file header


Most odd since it seems to work just fine if gunzip first and then use:

pg_restore -v -O -d mydb < mydb.dump.20070819

I'm using cygwin on WinXP

gunzip -c backup81.gz | pg_restore -v -O -d mydb

This returned an error:  pg_restore: [archiver] did not find magic 
string in file header   
 
Out of curiosity, does it do the same thing for?:
gunzip < backup81.gz | pg_restore -v -O -d mydb
