You said the dump file was over 4Gb, right? I'm wondering if you are
running into some file-offset-size bug. In particular this recent
bug fix might be relevant:

2004-01-03 23:02 tgl

* src/bin/pg_dump/pg_backup_archiver.c (REL7_4_STABLE): Fix
ReadOffset() to work correctly when off_t is wider than int.

although offhand I'm not sure how that would translate into what sounds
to be an unexpected-EOF failure.
