This is the bug report that prompted this thread:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2010-06/msg00018.php
I bigger question is why wouldn't we backpatch WINDOW as quoted in
pg_dump when we release back-branches? That would make the bug go away,
rather than require users to use a special flag (and find out only after
they were doing the reload).
