Dilip, this is on my TODO for 9.4. I've already had a half-backed patch
for it. Let's see what I can come up with.

I'm not sure about that because the pg_dump parallel code is tight to
TOC entry. Also, dependency matters for pg_dump while in the scripts
case, an order to be choosen will be used. However, vacuumdb can share
the parallel code with clusterdb and reindexdb (my patch does it).

Of course, a refactor to unify parallel code (pg_dump and scripts) can
be done in a separate patch.

I'll try to merge your patch with the one I have here until the next CF.
