So that the initial owner is still owner when he does COPY, ALTER TABLE ADD PRIMARY KEY, etc etc. Else you're gonna have problems.
I was thinking of doing all COPY and ALTER as superuser as well...
Or are you trying to make it work when run as non-super? Which is won't since ALTER OWNER will require superuser.
ie. the entire script always runs as a single user, most usefully a superuser.
