You shouldn't try to restore into a newer database version with a dump made with an older pg_dump. Pg_dump isn't (and can't be) forward compatible to database versions that don't yet exist when it is released. *Always* use a dump made with pg_dump from the newer database if you're upgrading. Especially between major versions of the database.
