The dump are from a version 9.0.7 and it's being restored in a version
9.1.3. There are no large objects.
I'm now doing another restore with the -v switch, and hopefully it will
show what it is doing at the end.
There are Bucardo triggers in the database. Perhaps it can be the
reason, and it should be restored with the "--disable-triggers" switch ?
It would be neat if there was a timestamp on the pg_restore steps in
verbose mode.
