Usually I umount my /home befor dumping and have no such problem, but
I see that kind of behaviour sometimes on a webserver, whose /home
isn't unmounted before dump starts.

Is the disk mounted and accessed by other processes? see fstat(1)
If so, what happens if you umount /dev/rld0h before dumping?
