I am having some trouble restoring the data back on 7.4.1 (made from
pg_dump on 7.2.4), that's the reason I would like to try dumping using
the pg_dump version of 7.4.1.

I had read in a post somethere by Tom Lane that the pg_dump of 7.4.1 can
be used to dump data on earlier versions, which is what I wanted to try.

pg_dump should be able to dump databases back to about 7.1, so you 
should be good to go.  As always, if you have problems, we would like 
to hear about it.

By the way, the latest version is 7.4.2 already.
