Those points are not unrelated.  If you bump catversion then beta
testers must use pg_upgrade to get from beta1 to beta2, so you should
not drop support for dumping from beta1.

I could agree with dropping that support after beta2, though.  That'd
imply having to update via beta2 to beta3 or later, but I doubt those
hardy enough to test beta1 would have a problem with that.

Check.

(I didn't read the patch, just responded to your commentary.)
