How are seqences dumped and transferred?

Hi everyone,
How are sequences' state dumped and transferred via pg_dump?
I am dumping and restoring a database via pg_dump. In the dump file I
have CREATE SEQUENCE and ALTER SEQUENCE commands. The ALTERs are just
for ownership, which leaves the CREATEs for transferring the current
state of the sequence (perhaps with the START [ WITH ] start clauses).
        Am I right?
        Kind regards:

There should be "SELECT setval()" commands in there.
