What version are you using? I can't seem to replicate this given the
above on 7.2, 7.3 or 7.4.
If these tables were preexisting and had gone through a dump cycle
from 7.0 or 7.1, there was a bug in pg_dump for those versions that
would lose the connection between the triggers and the other table
of the constraint.
In any case, you'll need to find and drop the two orphaned triggers on
state (see techdocs for information on how to find them).
