+Changes between versions 0.4b27 and 0.4b28 (released ?????????????????)
+=======================================================================
+
+1.	Fixed a bug in the QFA feature which could have caused 
+	a bad tape positionning on restore (causing extra delays in
+	restore). Credits go to Uwe Gohlke <uwe@ugsoft.de>.
+
+2.	Added a small note in the dump man page specifying that
+	there should be no white space between the option letter and
+	the -j or -z parameter, thanks to Kenneth Porter <shiva@well.com>
+
+3.	Made restore work with older versions of the readline library,
+	by checking in configure for several extended symbols. Restore
+	can now be compiled with a readline as old as the 2.0 release
+	(though it may be a good idea to upgrade it to a more recent
+	version...). Thanks to Andrew Donkin <ard@waikato.ac.nz> for
+	reporting the build failures.
+
+4.	Fixed a performance problem with the QFA file creation in
+	dump, which made unnecessary seeks on the tape slowing down
+	the dump. Thanks to Andrew Donkin <ard@waikato.ac.nz> for
+	reporting this issue.
+
+5.	Removed the inclusion of some kernel headers in the dump
+	source, which prevented the compile in some kernel/glibc
+	headers/architecture combination. Thanks to Bdale Garbee
+	<bdale@gag.com> for reporting the bug. 
+
+6.	Added the appropriate error message when dump fails to
+	open the output file for writing. Thanks to Amith Varghese
+	<amithv@yahoo.com> for reporting this bug.
+
+7.	Made restore able to understand large Solaris ufsdump tapes 
+	(containing inodes bigger than 4194304). Sun have introduced
+	an "extension" to the dump tape format when dealing with
+	those inodes, which was uncorrectly handled by Linux restore.
+	Thanks to Uwe Gohlke <uwe@ugsoft.de> for reporting the bug and
+	providing a test case.
+
+8.	Added the -m parameter to dump which optimises the output for
+	inodes having been changed but not modified since the last dump
+	('changed' and 'modified' have the meaning defined in stat(2)).
+	For those inodes, dump will save only the metadata, instead of
+	saving the entire inode contents. Inodes which are either 
+	directories or have been modified since the last dump are saved
+	in a regular way.  Uses of this flag must be consistent, meaning
+	that either every dump in an incremental dump set have the flag,
+	or no one has it.
