Correct.

The INCOMPLETED status value you're saying is a diskdump one,
makedumpfile doesn't use those values.  Please see "help -D"

crash> help -D
...
              status: 1 (DUMP_DH_COMPRESSED_ZLIB)

and crash's __diskdump_memory_dump():

        fprintf(fp, "              status: %x (", dh->status);
        switch (dd->flags & (DISKDUMP_LOCAL|KDUMP_CMPRS_LOCAL))
        {
        case DISKDUMP_LOCAL:
                if (dh->status == DUMP_HEADER_COMPLETED)
                        fprintf(fp, "DUMP_HEADER_COMPLETED");
                else if (dh->status == DUMP_HEADER_INCOMPLETED)
                        fprintf(fp, "DUMP_HEADER_INCOMPLETED");
                else if (dh->status == DUMP_HEADER_COMPRESSED)
                        fprintf(fp, "DUMP_HEADER_COMPRESSED");
                break;
        case KDUMP_CMPRS_LOCAL:
                if (dh->status & DUMP_DH_COMPRESSED_ZLIB)
                        fprintf(fp, "DUMP_DH_COMPRESSED_ZLIB");
                if (dh->status & DUMP_DH_COMPRESSED_LZO)
                        fprintf(fp, "DUMP_DH_COMPRESSED_LZO");
                if (dh->status & DUMP_DH_COMPRESSED_SNAPPY)
                        fprintf(fp, "DUMP_DH_COMPRESSED_SNAPPY");
                if (dh->status & DUMP_DH_COMPRESSED_INCOMPLETE)
                        fprintf(fp, "DUMP_DH_COMPRESSED_INCOMPLETE");
                if (dh->status & DUMP_DH_EXCLUDED_VMEMMAP)
                        fprintf(fp, "DUMP_DH_EXCLUDED_VMEMMAP");
                break;
        }
