Argh, postgis 2.

Two things:
* the geometry_columns table is not a table anymore but a view of the postgres 
catalogs
* extensions (9.1+, used by postgis 2 onwards) can declare configuration 
tables now, so even if you would still need a configuration table it would get 
dumped in a schema only dump

Also, adding postgis support into pg_dump would have been problematic given 
that pg_dump is part of core postgres and postgis isnt...
