Unfortunately, I don't have the dump and restore in my buffer, but I ran "pg_dumpall > backup.dump" and then I tried to upgrade Gforge and I got errors, so I freaked out and decided to restore before trying again.

There's your problem (or at least one of them). The pg_dumpall outputs straight SQL to stdout to recreate all DBs. To restore this, you would just do the following:
psql template1 < backup.dump pg_restore is looking for one of the other output formats (tar or custom). -- Jeff Frost, Owner <jeff@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Frost Consulting, LLC http://www.frostconsultingllc.com/ Phone: 650-780-7908 FAX: 650-649-1954
