This is per design of pg_dump, the documentation states the following:
"it is not guaranteed that pg_dump's output can be loaded into a server of
an older major version — not even if the dump was taken from a server of
that version. Loading a dump file into an older server may require manual
editing of the dump file to remove syntax not understood by the older
server."
Running the appropriate version of pg_dump for the target cluster, or applying
manual (or scripted) editing of the dump file is the option.
