The only issue is that I got thousands of warnings during the restores,

I compared the old and new files with "stat" but couldn't see any
difference apart from the inode numbers,
and the system seems to be working fine.
I wonder if this has something to do with selinux
(which I have turned off)?
I'd raise this on the dump mailing list. The developer is very responsive
there.
"man lsetxattr" indicates that this is an issue with extended attributes. I
think you can see those with the "lsattr" command. (Example: I set the "d"
attribute on things I don't want routinely dumped, like my Fedora DVD image
that's mounted as a yum core repository.)
