After some testing, I think it is NOT a problem with xfsdump, but with the new kernel 2.6.35.2. First I must correct my last posting: xfsdump-3.0.1 DO have the same problem as xfsdump-3.0.4 on kernel 2.6.35.2. It was just a coincidence that is worked one time without problems...

Machines: I have two x86_64 and one x86. All machines have the same problems after I upgraded all three Kernels from 2.6.34.x to 2.6.35.2. So I believe, it is a problem with 2.6.35.2 or the combination of [2.6.35.2 & xfsdump]

Compiler: I use "gcc (Gentoo 4.4.4-r1 p1.0, pie-0.4.5) 4.4.4". 

Testing List (on one machine only):
works:   x86_64, 2.6.34.4, xfsdump-3.0.1
works:   x86_64, 2.6.34.4, xfsdump-3.0.4
failure: x86_64, 2.6.35.2, xfsdump-3.0.1 (worked only one time)
failure: x86_64, 2.6.35.2, xfsdump-3.0.4
