Well, we were just trying to pull out add_missing_from, and look how far
that's gotten ...

Something that has been suggested is to rip out pg_dump's support for
pre-7.3 servers, which would probably be easier to get through because
it wouldn't create any user-visible feature loss.  It wouldn't be a
monstrous savings but it'd certainly simplify matters somewhat.
