Bug reference:      6007
Logged by:          gab
Email address:      kors...@free.fr
PostgreSQL version: 8.4.8
Operating system:   FreeBSD
Description:        pg_restore -C -d <database> does not behave as expected
when dump is done with pg_dump
Details: 

Create a database name 'test' and fill it : 
CREATE TABLE t (
    t text
);


ALTER TABLE public.t OWNER TO postgres;

--
-- Data for Name: t; Type: TABLE DATA; Schema: public; Owner: postgres
--

COPY t (t) FROM stdin;
plop
\.

Then dump it :
pg_dump -F c -f /tmp/plop test

Drop it :
psql -c 'drop database test;'

Try to restore it using :
pg_restore -C -d test /tmp/plop
pg_restore: [archiver (db)] connection to database "test" failed: FATAL: 
database "test" does not exist

But the doc says that -C use the parameter of -d to CREATE the database ...
