 :Usage error.  If you modify it like this:
 :
 :	dump 0ubf 64 - / > /dev/null
 :	dump 1ubf 64 - / > /dev/null
 :	dd if=/dev/zero of=/xxx bs=32k count=10		(create big file)
 :	dump 1ubf 64 - / > /dev/null
 :	dump 1ubf 64 - / > /dev/null
 :
 :...the first level 1 dump won't dump anything (since nothing has
 :changed since the last level 0 dump), but the second level 1 dump will
 :dump the new file.  The third level 1 dump, again, has nothing to dump
 :since nothing has changed.
 
     J"org, I'm pretty sure the third level 1 dump saves /xxx again.
