You could use the method described here for a single database:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-general/2008-02/msg00343.php

Just slap a wrapper around it (untested),  out.sql being the name of
the dump-file:

for i in  $(awk '/^CREATE DATABASE/ {print $3}' out.sql); do dump.sh
${i} out.sql  ${i}.sql; done

Of course you won't be getting the creation of specific roles or
anything that way.
