It looks to me a whole lot like you got it backward, ie, used the 8.1
pg_dump and then tried to restore with the 7.2 pg_restore.
Now you *should* be using the newer pg_dump to dump from the old
database --- that's considered good practice. But you need an
up-to-date pg_restore to read its output.
Well this time I got it dumped using 8.1.5 and tried restoring it too
with 8.1.5 - however no difference in the result.
