There is, however, an ownership problem with restoring sequences
in 8.0.0beta.  In 7.4.5, for example, pg_dump issues a SET SESSION
AUTHORIZATION command and then creates a table, so implicitly-created
sequences are restored with the correct ownership.  In 8.0.0beta2,
however, pg_dump doesn't issue SET SESSION AUTHORIZATION but rather
creates a table and then issues ALTER TABLE ... OWNER TO.

Oer. I'd better look at that :(

Yeah, we still need to find a solution for that.

That was a known problem? No-one had told me!

back out the ALTER OWNER TO changes, but I will if nothing else
presents itself.

I'd say that the OWNER TO mode fixes many more bugs than it created, plus they can always dump in the old way with a command line switch. However, of course the best thing is to just fix it, which I guess I'll have a crack at...
