Kernel 2.6.29.4 does not exhibit this problem:
xfsdump: estimated dump size: 8694781376 bytes
xfsdump: creating dump session media file 0 (media 0, file 0)
xfsdump: dumping ino map
xfsdump: dumping directories
xfsdump: dumping non-directory files
xfsdump: ending media file
xfsdump: media file size 8294709848 bytes
xfsdump: dump size (non-dir files) : 8208863560 bytes
xfsdump: dump complete: 102 seconds elapsed
xfsdump: Dump Status: SUCCESS
XFS(?) bug in 2.6.30.
