dump -L broken

Hi Kirk,

I'm not sure if you care about this, but it seems that dump -L is
currently broken, in a way that a restore from such a dump gives errors
like "expected next file 9, got 7", and sometimes the resulting tree
differs from the original.

If you make a snapshot by hand with mksnap_ffs, mdconfig it and then dump
/dev/md0 there's no problem.

Could it be that the unlink call in dumps main.c (right after the snapshot
is created, which is probably there to not dump the snapshot file too)
could cause this problems?

regards,
le
