It's a problem with dump.
Somewhere between version 0.4b15 and 0.4b19, dump no longer allowed
level 1-9 dumps on a subdirectory, or the use of the '-u' flag.
Not sure what the problem was with level 1 and higher dumps with
subdirectories... checked CVS, but the comments weren't very useful...
I've downgraded to dump 0.4b15 and that should fix the problem...
