Added the need for a DEBUG option (not forking on each tape).

+Need to verify:
+---------------
+
+1.     Verify that dump works correctly on rev 1 ext2fses (need success
+       reports)
+
+2.     Verify that dump works with kerberos authentification (this
+       was ported from *BSD and was not tested - in fact, this
+       wasn't even compiled in!). Need success reports for this.
+
+Urgent items (for the next stable version):
+-------------------------------------------

 
 1.     Make dump honor the no-dump attribute on directories.  Currently, it
        honours it only on files.  This means that a directory flagged with
        the no-dump attribute will be dumped if it contains a file without
        the no-dump flag.

+5.     Reimplement the ext2 specific code in a "backend" and

        make the dump code more generic. This would allow creation
        of other backends for other filesystems. Implementing a 
        (v)fat backend should be quite easy, as for BSD ffs (we
        already have the code for this).
