older dumps don't support ACLs / EAs

options:

1. use old dump + restorecon afterward (works if you don't mind the 
errors, and don't customize)

2. use beta dump with support for EAs

Fedora Core 3 updates and 4 when it ships have the new dump with EA 
support. RHEL 3 and 4 doesn't yet since it's fairly beta. If it's 
important to you to have it supported for RHEL, harass your support 
critter (not an option with Centos, but you get what you pay for ;-) about 
getting it updated in the next quarterly update. If you don't care about 
support, just use the beta one from Fedora or build your own from 
sourceforge....

it doesn't, but star does
