This isn't a bug ... you need to load the appropriate version of
contrib/isn for that server. Admittedly, pg_dump doesn't make that
terribly easy (it will work a lot better in 9.1 with the extensions
infrastructure). In existing releases the best advice is to load
the .sql file for the contrib module, then source the dump, ignoring
the object-already-exists errors you get for the module's objects.
