As the user that you issue the pg_dump with on the machine you
generated it, and as the user you're trying to use to restore the
data, at the command line type

 $ locale

You end up with something like this:

stovepipe:~ ajs$ locale
LANG="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_CTYPE="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

I can't remember whether the client encoding is going to be affected
by this during dump and restore, and whether in these versions that is
captured in the dump file.
