 | Create a schema only dump with the 7.2 pg_dump. 
 | Create a data only dump (possibly with INSERT output) with the 7.3
 | pg_dump. Assuming you haven't done anything too wacky, you should be
 | able to drop your 7.2 database, reload the 7.2 schema, then load up the
 | 7.3 data. As always, test this out before doing it on a production
 | system.

Thanks a lot for this quick explanation, this is very helpful!
By the way, is there a possibility to just do incremental
dumps/restores? Say, since a given date?
