I understand the reluctance to fool with stable code.  I have zero insight
into your installed versions distribution and backward compatibility needs
so any comment I may have here is purely selfish.

As an end user there is one area of the DB that I want to work correctly
100% of the time and that is the dump/restore tool(s).  If it's not going
to work under certain circumstances it should at least tell me so and
fail.  I don't think having the tool appear to work while corrupting the
data (even if documented as doing so) is a viable method of operation.

Just my $0.02

Bosco.
