Bug reference: 7874
Logged by: Joe Van Dyk
Email address: joe(at)tanga(dot)com
PostgreSQL version: 9.2.1
Operating system: OSX, Linux
Description:

If I run:
alter database foo set my.name = 'joe';

that GUC isn't available inside backups of that database.

It does show up when doing "pg_dumpall -s".

It does *not* show up when doing "pg_dumpall -g"

$ createdb foo
$ psql foo
psql (9.2.1)

foo=# alter database foo set my.name = 'joe';
ALTER DATABASE

foo=# \q

$ pg_dump foo > foo.sql

$ cat foo.sql
