Alright, I bit the bullet and set up a test Postgres RDS instance. The only way I
could get anything to load was to follow the instructions here:

http://dba.stackexchange.com/questions/66372/moving-a-postgres-database-from-standalone-local-db-to-amazon-rds

and that was only after finding a database that did not have plpythonu
installed as that is uninstallable.

So I ended up with:

pg_restore -C -d test -h testdb.xxxxxxxxxxx.rds.amazonaws.com -p 5432 -U rds_user --no-owner --no-privileges b_app.out

I think I will stick with my policy of not using RDS.
