dump and symbolic links?

[Spencer Kantor]

Does anyone happen to know if dump follows symbolic links?  In other words
will dump copy the file the link is pointing to or does it just copy the
link entry itself.  What if the link is across NFS mounted filesystems -
is the "real" file still copied?  If dump doesn't normally follow symbolic
links is there a way to force it to?

For example, there's an option to tar (-h) which forces it to follow
symbolic links but I'm unsure about dump.  

Thanks.
