That's one possible issue, but I think a more likely cause is the recent
security-driven changes in the search_path that the restore script runs
with.  If the function is relying on unqualified references to functions
that aren't in pg_catalog, it'll fail.  (This theory explains why things
were okay with old copies of pg_dump.)
