Mph. I'd have zero confidence in a dump taken under such circumstances,
anyway. If pgpool can't duplicate OIDs (which I agree it probably
can't) then it's unlikely to be able to make the databases match closely
enough to satisfy pg_dump in other ways. I'd worry about
synchronization issues to start with...
I don't think we should make pg_dump slower and possibly less reliable
in order to support a fundamentally dangerous administration procedure.
Run pg_dump directly into the database, not through pgpool.
