No, not really.

I should have told you to use -PHVvi so we'd get more complete inode 
information.  It might still be useful to do that.  However, given that the 
problem happens so early in the dump, it may yet be possible to debug.

dd if=user.h100554.dump of=user.h100554.dump.BEGIN bs=256 count=2

This should construct a nice small file containing the first 512 bytes of 
the dump.  This will include the headers and the first couple of vnodes, 
including whatever the problem spot is.

Put that somewhere on the web or in AFS, and send a pointer.
I want to take a look at the dump and see if I can figure out what's going 
on.
