It now outputs a warning to stderr as well as the dump file.

I'm not sure I want to support 7.0->7.0 (or 7.1->7.0) in the dump for 7.1.
This could get really messy in a few versions time. It's mainly to allow
smoother upward conversions.

Done. It does not crash the dump, but it does write a 'warning entry' to
stderr & the dump file so that subsequent a pg_restore will display a
warning as well.
Amended file available at:

At the moment the version compatibility changes are relatively trivial, so
I'm not sure there is any value in creating multiple modules (I had thought
one per version would be TWTG). Should I apply this to CVS when it's been a
little more tested?
