Looking at the BDR commit history, it has been doing that since May.

    Only dump non-default sequence access methods
    
    To prevent issues with UDR and with restoring BDR dumps to non-BDR
    databases, don't emit a USING clause unless the pg_seqam catalog is
    present and the dumped sequence uses a non-default sequence access
    method.
    
    The dump should be restored with default_seqam = 'local' to ensure
    that local sequences aren't transformed into 'bdr' sequences during
    restore.
