This is not a bug; it's pg_dump trying to recreate the actual floating
point value as accurately as it can.  See the discussion of
extra_float_digits from six months or a year back.

Oh, I see (and generally appreciate). Thank you for reminding me.


Commenting out "set extra_float_digits=2" in pg_dump.c gives me the old behaviour. Is it only me wishing for a command line parameter for pg_dump to set desired precision?
