Yeah, I figured that out yesterday, but hadn't gotten to writing a patch

Your proposed patch will only fix the problem for dumps created after
it ships. In the past, we've tried to deal with this type of issue by
having pg_restore fix up the dependencies when reading a dump, so that
it would still work on existing dumps.
I'm afraid there may be no way to do that in this case --- it doesn't
look like there's enough info in the dump to tell where the dependency
link should have led. But we should think about it a little before
taking the easy way out.
