AFAIK, a permissions problem would result in a pretty obvious error
message from pg_dump ... though it's certainly possible for someone
to ignore that, especially if they are running pg_dump noninteractively.

Skipping in what sense --- no DDL, no setval, both?  Is this a
separately created sequence or a SERIAL sequence?
