If you used 7.4 pg_dump, I believe that the dump script does not assume
any particular superuser name (it says RESET SESSION AUTHENTICATION
when it wants to get back into superuser state, so as long as you start
it as a superuser, you're golden).
IIRC, 7.3 pg_dump had an option to specify the superuser name to use.
