I dont seem to have it anymore... but here is a re-created, untested
version.

do $$
delcare r record;
begin
for r in select loid from pg_catalog.pg_largeobject loop
   execute 'ALTER LARGE OBJECT ' || r.loid || ' OWNER TO andy';
end loop;
end$$;


I wanted to change the owner.. where-as you want grant... but it should
