I reread the docs and it seems maxdumpsize controls what the planner does not the dumper. That means if the estimate is smaller than actual size of the dump you can run out of tape (as I have), and it may not be an error as such. So the -1 might be working. I've had this problem of small estimates so it's not clearly wrong to use -1 in my case.
