Minidumps in -STABLE and "smaller than physical memory"

Hello!
I've noticed (with the 2-day old RELENG_6) that I still can't configure my
256Mb swap partition as a dump device for i386 machine with 1Gb RAM despite
having minidumps enabled:
root at test2# sysctl debug.minidump
debug.minidump: 1
root at test2# dumpon -v /dev/ad0s3b
/dev/ad0s3b is smaller than physical memory
Am I correctly understand that minidumps should lift the restriction
sizeof(dumpdev) >= sizeof(RAM)
?
Sincerely, Dmitry
