[ shrug... ] You're making an incredibly overheated, expansive
claim, many possible interpretations of which are obviously false.
You've provided zero detail that would let anyone figure out what your
actual concrete problem is --- and it sure isn't obvious, because
pg_dump doesn't have any direct connection to allow_system_table_mods,
nor does the security patch you're complaining about.

Perhaps you should read

https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Guide_to_reporting_problems

But with only the information you've provided so far, this bug report
isn't going to go anywhere, because we can't even understand what
you are talking about.
