"dump -L " not working as expected?

Colleagues,

I dump an active filesystem on a FreeBSD 5.4-RELEASE-p7 with the -L
option. dump says:

"Dumping snapshot of /dev/mirror/gm1s1h (/home) to ..."

However when I later "restore -r" the filesystem, I keep getting messages
like 

./www/data/ASN/bay_3.log: (inode 805993) not found on tape
expected next file 23553, got 6
expected next file 805964, got 805963
expected next file 806010, got 806009                

Why is that? 

I am used to seeing such messages on FreeBSD 4.x and earlier systems,
but I thought I would never see them again when dumping a snapshot.

Thanks in advance for any input.
