Chris, This is probably a bad suggestion, but iff you are desparate and iff you can build a more recent postgis, then to dump it out you may find that creating a simlink from a more recent liblwgeom.so with the name of the missing one might work. the COPY command won't actually take anything other than the SQL, so shouldn't affect the importing.
