Reproduced here against HEAD.  The problem seems to be that
pg_backup_db.c's _sendSQLLine() contains a mini SQL lexer that is not
cognizant of standard_conforming_strings.  Not sure about a simple fix,
and I rather wonder if we shouldn't try to remove that code entirely
instead of "fix" it.

As a temporary workaround, the SQL text file that pg_restore produces
by default seems to be valid, so you could pipe that into psql.
