Yes, this is it:
I had this leftover line in pg_hba.conf:
host all all ::1/128 md5
Removing the line gives me:
FATAL: no pg_hba.conf entry for host "::1", user "akaariai", ...
And changing md5 to trust fixes the issue.
I wonder if it would be possible to supply -w to pg_dump to make pg_dump
fail automatically instead of asking for password and thus hanging the
whole pgadmin program. Unfortunately supported only from version 8.4...
