Your default-route scheme certainly make this work, but wasn't viable for us since the server couldn't be a router (for various reasons).

Your choices are to put the dump server on a different subnet (the router will obviously forward in this case, as that what it must do) or write your own arp code in a modified kernel. That's what we did, since we already had kernel mods. Most folks won't go that way :)
I've run into this for as long as I can remember having dumps. My workaround is to set the default route to be the dump server. This works best when you are planning in advance to crash the machine :)
