/usr/etc/dump in IRIX 4.0.5 does not correctly parse the "raw" field of the
entries in /etc/fstab.  If any other options follow the 'raw' device name
they are picked up as part of the name by "dump".  For example, this entry:

    /dev/dsk/dks1d5s6 /data1 efs rw,raw=/dev/rdsk/dks1d5s6,quota 0 0

causes "dump" to try to open the file "/dev/rdsk/dks1d5s6,quota".
This was NOT the case with IRIX 4.0.1.  The workaround is to make sure the
'raw' field is the last in the list.
