You can disable foreign-key constraints (see ALTER TABLE ... DISABLE TRIGGER; 
not quite obvious, but there is a trigger beneath each foreign key 
constraint).  But there is no general solution for all constraints and 
indexes.

It might also be helpful to investigate the order in which pg_dump puts out 
things, since it faces mostly the same issues.  It puts index and constraint 
creation at the end after the data load.
