Logged by:          Joe Van Dyk
Email address:      joe@tanga.com
PostgreSQL version: 9.2.1
Operating system:   OSX, Linux
Description:        =


If I run:
   alter database foo set my.name =3D 'joe';

that GUC isn't available inside backups of that database.

It does show up when doing "pg_dumpall -s". =


It does *not* show up when doing "pg_dumpall -g"


$ createdb foo
$ psql foo
psql (9.2.1)

foo=3D# alter database foo set my.name =3D 'joe';
ALTER DATABASE

foo=3D# \q

$ pg_dump foo > foo.sql

$ cat foo.sql
