Tom Lane! Tom Lane! Tom Lane! Just checked my history to confirm and yes
I've ignored errors about objects already existing. Problem solved with
the cause known!

Maybe you did the restore three times? If you do that and ignore errors
about objects already existing, you could end up with multiple copies
of all rows (at least in tables without any unique indexes).
