Interesting!

5.16 is still supported according to our install instructions,
so let's see if we can adjust that regex so it works with 5.16.
The first thing I'd try is

-       $dump =~ s {(^\s+'version',) '\d+'::integer,$}
+       $dump =~ s {^(\s+'version',) '\d+'::integer,$}

since I notice we mostly don't put ^ inside capture parens elsewhere.
Are you in a position to test that?
