If you have any comments on views, this is probably an instance of a
known bug:

2002-12-27 12:10 tgl

* src/bin/pg_dump/: pg_dump.c (REL7_3_STABLE), pg_dump.c: Remove
overenthusiastic free'ing of comment dependencies; could lead to
core dump in pg_dump when dumping views having comments. See bug
#855.

This fix postdates 7.3.1, but you could get the patch from the CVS
server or the pgsql-bugs archives.

regards, tom lane
