I have made the changes to pg_dump and verified that (a) it reads old 
files, (b) it handles 8 byte offsets, and (c) it dumps & seems to restore 
(at least to /dev/null).

I don't have a lot of options for testing it - should I just apply the 
changes and wait for the problems, or can someone offer a bigendian machine 
and/or a 4 byte off_t machine?
