'Verbose' mode for dump(8)?

Does anybody have a 4.2 (or 4.1c) version of 'dump(8)' that
logs which files it writes to tape?  We really need to have this
sort of thing in order to find which backup tape some lusers'
file is on.  Making dump do this looks like a non-trivial
job, so I hope that someone else has done so.

Thanks in advance... (Of course, if nobody has one, then no
thanks will be in order).

Yes, I know that a 'restore t' can be done after the dump
to get a table of contents - I was wondering if someone
has taught dump to do one as it goes.
