 I can't reproduce it either just by trying to restore a large
 filesystem:
 
 15:43:walton 4# restore xf - < ../src-dump
 restore xf - < ../src-dump
 set owner/mode for '.'? [yn] n
 21:50:walton 5# fg
 21:50:walton 6# ls -l ../src-dump
 -rw-------  1 root  wheel  3211929600 Sep 17 11:38 ../src-dump
 
 Whatever the problem is, it doesn't seem to be restore. Maybe
 they're somehow producing bad dump files?
