Duh, sorry. Got confused. I though you weren't the submitter, for some strange reason. Anyway, I see this in the code:
+ /* Handle array types */ + if (typname[0] == '_') + { + isarray = true; + typname++; + }
Do we know that is always true? What is the issue that 7.0 needs this and newer released don't, and how are we sure this will not break some strange cases in post-7.0 releases?
It's not a problem, since that code path is only ever executed when dumping a 7.0 backend. It's in the MyFormatType function in pg_dump.c that is used whenever the backend doesn't have its own format_type function.
