I've got a script that dumps various filesystems to tape for me, but

You probably have not created the .snap directory in the root of the
filesystem.
From the dump(8) man page:
If the .snap directory does not exist in the root of the
file system being dumped, a warning will be issued and the
dump will revert to the standard behavior. This problem
can be corrected by creating a .snap directory in the root
of the file system to be dumped; its owner should be
``root'', its group should be ``operator'', and its mode
should be ``0770''.
