This was discussed already. It's a corner case we didn't really think
about while designing roles. It's possible to support this: the group
and the user will now really be the same entity, ie a role that has both
its own login privileges and members. However pg_dump isn't doing the
right things to make the old situation morph into the new one. Want to
write a patch?
