    I like the idea of smaller dumps. Certainly KernelOnly is most
    useful from my perspective. Mini is also useful. Having an ascii
    option for it seems reasonable if it can be done with minimal
    kernel code. Otherwise, it seems like it would be fairly simple
    to get it after the fact from a binary dump with kgdb.
