No preaching from me; I'm still on 5.4 which might be newer than yours
but still obsolete :-) If you've covered any security issues, run what
works for you!
I've checked in the source code and on 5.4 and what I think to be 4.10
in the CVS Repository, there is clearly an assignment
honorlevel = 1
which gets overridden by any -h flag, and I can't see any other
assignments. Then a flag nonodump is set based on the honorlevel and
dump level. That looks correct to me.
My best guess is still some problem with your command line.
