  Modified files:
    sbin/dump            dump.8 main.c 
  Log:
  Add the `L' option to dump to notify it that it is dumping a
  live filesystem. To obtain a consistent dump image, dump takes
  a snapshot of the filesystem and then does a dump of the snapshot.
  The snapshot is removed when the dump is complete.
  
  Also add an operator warning that the `L' option should be used
  if dump is run on a live filesystem without the `L' option being
  specified. The alternative would be to silently use a snapshot
  any time that a live filesystem is dumped, but this change in
  dump semantics seemed too drastic at this time.
