There is not any data in the new database. I have dropped the database, created the database and then piped in the backup every time.

When doing the pg_dump of the 8.4 database you might want to use the -c option
"
-c
--clean
Output commands to clean (drop) database objects prior to outputting the
commands for creating them. (Restore might generate some harmless errors.)
This option is only meaningful for the plain-text format. For the archive
formats, you can specify the option when you call pg_restore.
"
My suspicion is that there is already data in the tables of the 9.1 server from
previous restore attempts.
