Thread: pg_dump quoting bug

One last missing quoting bug in pg_dump:
now that sequence names are properly quoted for field defaults, mixed
case sequence names are generated. These are properly quoted in the
CREATE SEQUENCE lines, but not in the SELECT nextval lines, as per below:

CREATE SEQUENCE "Teams_TeamID_seq" start 10 increment 1 maxvalue
2147483647 minvalue 1  cache 1 ;
SELECT nextval ('Teams_TeamID_seq');

This needs to be:
SELECT nextval ('"Teams_TeamID_seq"');

Patch included below.

Thanks.  Fix applied.  This will appear in 6.6 and the next 6.5.x release.
