When including tables with the new pg_dump functionality, it fails to
error out if a table is missing, but only if more than one table is
specified.

E.g., if table foo exist, but not bar:

pg_dump --table bar
pg_dump: error: no matching tables were found

with file "myfilter" containing just "table bar"
pg_dump --filter myfilter
pg_dump: error: no matching tables were found

with the file "myfilter" containing both "table foo" and "table bar"
(order doesn't matter):
<no error, but dump of course only contains foo>

Not having looked into the code, but it looks to me like some variable
isn't properly reset, or perhaps there is a check for existence rather
than count?
