Decoding the DUIDs could sometimes lead to wrong output because they might map to different device-files at different times. However, I recently submitted a patch (which got accepted with modifications by Alexander Hall) that allows to record DUIDs in /etc/dumpdates. Doing that also resolves this issue.
