I'm doing a restore into Postgresql 8.4, postgis 1.5.1 and I'm getting the following error when it creates the below function:
pg_restore: creating FUNCTION _get_buffer(geometry, double precision, integer)
pg_restore: [archiver (db)] Error from TOC entry 966; 1255 49162661 FUNCTION _get_buffer(geometry, double precision, integer) postgres
pg_restore: [archiver (db)] could not execute query: ERROR: SQL function cannot accept shell type geometry

I don't understand what 'cannot accept shell type geometry' means? Can anyone help my lack of knowledge?
Thanks
