cpio won't do it, tar won't do it, dump only does whole partitions,
cpdup is not an archiver. Hmm.
Actually:
* Joerg Schilling's "star" has done this for many years.
* bsdtar has likewise supported it for a long time (apart from recent
breakage <sigh>).
There's very little precedent for flags support in cpio format, though a
cpio that supported modern tar formats should be able to support it.
Pax should support it (though ours does not currently).
