Hi,

Just curious if there were any plans to upgrade FreeBSD's dump to
support the dumping of selected dirs/files within a filesystem rather
than the entire filesystem. This option is available in
OpenBSD/NetBSD/Solaris dump and would be useful.

Also, is there any reason why restore creates symbolic links with mode
'lrwx------' when the dumped file had mode 'lrwxr-xr-x'?

Cheers,
Mark
