Quoting from the pg_dump source code:

     * We want to dump the opfamily only if (1) it contains "loose" operators
     * or functions, or (2) it contains an opclass with a different name or
     * owner.  Otherwise it's sufficient to let it be created during creation
     * of the contained opclass, and not dumping it improves portability of
     * the dump.

I guess if it contains no opclasses and no operators either, this code
won't dump it, but isn't it rather useless in such a case?
