The daily periodic e-mails for my boxes always include useless output from
dump -W. I think the daily e-mail should only do that if the sysadmin is
actually using dump. The patch below skips the dump reporting it
/etc/dumpdates doesn't exist or exists and is an empty file (the latter is
what you get out-of-the-box):
