Given the lack of a -d switch, I'd expect it not to try to connect
anywhere, just emit the restore script on stdout. At least, that's
what happens for me. It's weird that you don't see any printout.
(To be clear: it's -d that triggers a connection attempt in pg_restore.
Without that, -h and -p are just noise.)
