Could we see a complete example?

Recent versions of the backend are not supposed to throw hard errors in
this situation, because of exactly that hazard.  For instance:

regression=# create role joe;
CREATE ROLE
regression=# alter role joe set search_path to foo, bar;
NOTICE:  schema "foo" does not exist
NOTICE:  schema "bar" does not exist
ALTER ROLE
regression=# 

which AFAICS is exactly what will happen while restoring a pg_dumpall
dump.
