>Description:

The following line (177) in /usr/src/sbin/dump/tape.c:

	*(union u_spcl *)(*(nextblock)++) = *(union u_spcl *)dp;

has to be replaced with

	bcopy(dp, *(nextblock)++, sizeof (union u_spcl));

in order for dump to work. I believe that the code is correct- but I'll
have to admit I did not spend a lot of time validating this.
