Error restoring

Hello,

We have taken a pg_dump of version 8.0.3 db.

now at a different machine we are trying to restore but the plpgsql functions are having $_$ after "as" and after "end;". This is causing errors while restoring. Do anyone know how to get rid of this easily.

Thanks.

Dollar quoting was not implemented until PostgreSQL 8.0. Are you
trying to restore to an earlier version? If so you have to change the
$_$ to single quotes and then appropriately escape any quotes in the
function body.
