I am not sure how to interpret the lack of replies to this email. 
Either it is confidence, shock, or we told you so.  ;-)

Anyway, the attached patch fixes the problem.  The fix is for pg_dump's
binary upgrade mode.  This would need to be backpatched back to 8.4
because pg_migrator needs this too.

I have added a personal regression test to show which
pg_class.relfrozenxid values are not preserved, and with this patch the
only ones not preserved are toast tables used by system tables, which
are not copied from the old cluster (FirstNormalObjectId = 16384).  I am
attaching that old/new pg_class.relfrozenxid diff as well.

Any idea how to correct existing systems?  Would VACUUM FREEZE of just
the toast tables work?  I perhaps could create a short DO block that
would vacuum freeze just toast tables;  it would have to be run in every
database.
