It seems to me that I ran into a similiar problem recently. I also had trouble loading tables with their permissions. This is fixed in the newer versions, (if you are upgrading now make sure you get 6.5.3) but for now the trick is to get your table moved across. Would it be possible to do a pg_dumpall without the -z option and then simply set the permissions manually when you are done? That is what I ended up doing.
