????  You only dump(8) file systems.   /dev /procfs /dev/mirror/..., etc
are not filesystems.   They are just directories.    Don't dump them.
/procfs is not even a real directory so it goes away and gets repopulated
when the system boots again.

They all need to live in the '/' filesystem and of what is dumpable, gets
dumped when you dump / (the root filesystem).   

Unless I completely misunderstand what you are asking.
