pgAdmin uses 8.2 pg_dump to dump a database. Perhaps Laurent use another 
pg_dump release. I mean, if he has a 7.4 database cluster, 7.4 pg_dump 
won't create the same dump as a 8.2 pg_dump.

BTW, I think this should be a TODO : be able to choose a pg_dump release 
to make a backup. I think it has already been asked. (To be honest, I 
didn't search on the roadmap to see if it was already there.)
