It does; the ascii dump file is generated by exactly the same technique as 
pg_restore.

Internally, pg_dump builds a TOC, then calls RestoreArchive to dump the 
text. It was designed this way for a bunch of reasons, and one was to avoid 
too much difference between the output of each format. Which is why it is 
very unlikely that "pg_dump -Fc | pg_restore" would produce output 
substantially different from that of "pg_dump".

So, as long as pg_dump puts the CREATE TABLE and ALTER TABLE in different 
commands, they will appear as such in the text file.
