I'm not sure what to say. Since dump works fine on other machines, it's very tempting to write this off as a problem with your kernel(s). But that isn't satisfying. Can you try a stock Debian kernel to see if somehow your local kernel build really is the cause of the problem? Alternatively, have you tried rebuilding dump from my source package to see if the problem might somehow be related to the tool chain versions that were used to build the binary package on the Debian autobuilder?
