Comment(by darkpanda):

 I think the same issue exists in older versions of PostGIS as well, so if
 there were any plans for further 1.5 releases the same style of fix should
 probably be applied there as well. I haven't had to use postgis_restore.pl
 on my older 1.5 databases, but I'm assuming the same issue will occur
 around line 648. I haven't personally confirmed this however, but that's
 what it looks like in the code.

 I can write a quick patch if y'all want, but I believe the few lines that
 the patch consists of are going to be pretty much identical to the
 existing patch.
