According to the commit logs, there was a win32-related fix to this on
8.2, and some further MinGW-related changes in 8.4.

Regardless of this issue, I'd suggest that you upgrade to the latest
version, 9.1.1. 8.1 isn't supported anymore, and 8.2 is just about to
reach EOL by the end of December
(http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PostgreSQL_Release_Support_Policy).

I believe the dump is OK, but restoring it doesn't work on version 8.1
on Windows.
