FYI, some digging with git bisect pointed me to this commit:
http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git;a=commitdiff;h=c0d5be5d6a736d2ee8141e920bc3de8e001bf6d9

which introduced the per-blob message I showed before, e.g.

 >> pg_restore: executing BLOB 126810

The above commit was made during 9.0dev, and doesn't look to have been
backported to 8.4. The 8.4 versions should display something like this
in verbose mode:

  pg_restore: restoring BLOBS
  pg_restore: restored 10 large objects
  pg_restore: restoring BLOB COMMENTS
  ...

i.e. no per-blob message. (I've verified the messages above are
similar on 8.4.1 and 8.4.11.) Maybe you were using a 9.0+ version of
pg_restore when you saw per-blob messages?
