Problem is existing dump files. Oh, hang on - this is new for 8.0.
Hmmm...so what do we do then? I have been seriously pressed for time
the last few weeks, so I don't have time to make alter table alter all
the serial seqeunces on a table as well :(

I've got a mostly working fix for the bug that involves alter owner on
the sequence, but let me know if you want me to finish it.
