The list I presented above was based upon reading gpart(8). There is one mention of the word "dump", and it is for the backup command of gpart (so not related). There is no mention of "core" or "save" or "crash". My guess would have been freebsd-swap, and in another mail I got informed that this is what is used by other people.
