In general you're going to have lots of problems trying to back-port a
dump file to an earlier major release --- there are almost always things
in the dump file that the older server won't take.  So even if you got
past the pg_restore error check you'd still be facing issues.

Is there a good reason you aren't running a more modern Postgres
release?
