Yes, it seems pg_dump doesn't dump per-database alter information, only
pg_dumpall does.  That information is considered global to the cluster,
rather than per-database.

Should we throw a warning or dump that info in pg_dump?

I just tried it in 7.4beta and it worked:

        test=> alter database test set search_path to 'public';

When I disconnect and reconnect:
        
        test=> show search_path;
         search_path
        -------------
         public
        (1 row)
