Well, you can't have it both ways, Branko. :-)

When I dump -r1001:HEAD into a file, I have two mutually exclusive
choices:

    * the first revision in the dumpfile is all fulltexts, and every
      subsequent node refers back to them. when loading the file, the
      first revision is imported as whatever revision number is "next"
      in the repository.

      OR

    * the first revison refers back to paths that are in pre-1000
      revisions. That means when you load the file, you better be
      loading into a repository that already has the exact 1000
      revisions it wants to see.
