Howdy:

I must be missing something simple:  is it written
somewhere that I can not dump a table that starts
with pg_*?  I can do a:

'pg_dump -t tmp_table -d database -f /tmp/tmp_table.dmp'

and get something, but I can't seem to get a dump
of the pg_* tables ... even when I use a '-U postgres'.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!
