Tom,
Absolutely right!  I suppose I could have figured that out if I had spent
three days looking at it :-)
I didn't find anything in the docs about assigning a sysid to a new user, so
I just did a createuser and an UPDATE to pg_shadow to reset the sysid.
If that is likely to cause a problem, please let me know.  In any case,
pg_dump is now working for me.
Thank you once again for your valuable help.
Regards
