BTW, what exactly was the use-case for this? The recent discussions
about parallelizing pg_restore make it clear that the all-in-one
dump file format still has lots to recommend it. So I'm just wondering
what the actual advantage of splitting the dump into multiple files
will be. It clearly makes life more complicated; what are we buying?
