Why in the world would you try that, rather than using 7.4's pg_dump?
At no time has pg_dump version N claimed to produce output that
was loadable into server versions < N.

8.1 thinks it should use "SET default_with_oids = false" instead.

(Should I point out that the current release in the 7.4 series
is 7.4.19? 7.4.13 is nearly a year and a half obsolete, and is
missing significant security and data-loss fixes.)
