+7.     Fixed a compatibility problem between dumps made on little
+       endian machines (the format was correct) and big endian 
+       machines (the format was incorrect). This fix break the
+       compatibility with the older dumps made on big endian 
+       machines (sparc, m86k, ppc etc). For the first time in
+       linux dump's history (I believe), the dumps made by *BSD, 
+       Linux/alpha, Linux/sparc and Linux/x86 are compatible, 
+       so interchangeable. Thanks to Rob Cermak
+       <cermak@ahab.rutgers.edu> for submitting the bug and
+       helping me test the fix.

+8.     Fixed the way dump reports the remaining percent/time, if
+       the number of blocks actually dumped exceeds the estimated
+       number of blocks. Thanks to Jean-Paul van der Jagt 
+       <jeanpaul@dutepp0.et.tudelft.nl> for reporting the bug.
