The configuration files (postgresql.conf, pg_hba.conf, pg_ident.conf),
plus any SSL server keys/certs you might be using --- basically, all
the static text files in the toplevel $PGDATA directory.  Those things
are not accessible to a client so pg_dump can't dump them.

Some people put these files in a different directory where they'll be
caught by their regular filesystem backup procedures for the server.
