Yeah.  I have been intending to change pg_restore to not quit on error,
but haven't gotten around to it.  I'd suggest you see about doing that.

Another possible workaround is to do a schema-only restore into a text
file that you can load with psql (thereby ignoring this error) followed
by a data-only restore with pg_restore.  I think that would work but
have never tried it.
