XFS has a dump utility... non of the other FS's do (JFS or Reiserfs).

There is a dump for ext2/3 but you'll have to use snapshoting with LVM 
or ELVM to keep dump from hanging.... (unless you want to umount the 
filesystem before dumping...)

If you care about real backups go with XFS. It's also (in my tests) 
faster than the others...
