But I'm having troubles with the 9.2 server crashing when I'm restoring the dump. I'm using the 9.2 version of pg_dump. I've tried restoring a custom-format dump with pg_restore, and I've tried restoring a text-format dump with pqsl, and both of them are crashing on me.

The data is too sensitive for me to submit a database dump to the community, but I'd like to submit a stack trace, in the hopes that someone might be able to figure out what's going on. But I'm having some trouble getting this done.

Is it crashing on a specific database object? pg_restore -v will tell you how far it went. Then try to restore only that object. Is it perhaps crashing on a specific row?

Try producing a self contained test case (like only the culprit table, anonymized).

Good advice. I turned on –verbose, and got a ton of output, ending with:

pg_restore: setting owner and privileges for FK CONSTRAINT user_id_refs_id_7ceef80f
pg_restore: setting owner and privileges for FK CONSTRAINT user_id_refs_id_dfbab7d
pg_restore: [archiver (db)] could not execute query: no connection to the server
Command was: -- Completed on 2013-09-09 11:35:16 EDT

pg_restore: [archiver (db)] could not execute query: no connection to the server
Command was: --
-- PostgreSQL database dump complete

Which I find really odd, because I specified –no-owner –no-privileges –no-tablespace
chris(at)mu:/sdb$ pg_restore --dbname=certified_mail_ccc2 --format=c --verbose --clean --no-owner --no-privileges --no-tablespaces -h mu -p 5434 cm_Mon.backup

So now I’m up to three questions. (Why the crash? How to get backtrace? Why are we applying permissions when I said not to?) I guess that’s the nature of the universe. Let me see if I can figure out which table that is and try to create a test case.
