I think what we need to do is make fix_dependencies
build a reverse lookup list of all the objects dependent on each TOC

which is a good tradeoff because you won't care if N is small, while if
N is large you have got to have it anyway.

Barring objections, I will do this and back-patch into 9.0.  There is
maybe some case for trying to fix 8.4 as well, but since 8.4 didn't
make a separate TOC entry for each blob, it isn't as exposed to the
problem.  We didn't back-patch the last round of efficiency hacks in
this area, so I'm thinking it's not necessary here either.  Comments?

                        


Sound good. Re 8.4: at a pinch people could probably use the 9.0 pg_restore with their 8.4 dump.

cheers
