This should be possible... according to the config.pl inline
documentation (you have read it, right????), the following variable is
available to $Conf{DumpPreUserCmd}, $Conf{DumpPostUserCmd},
$Conf{DumpPreShareCmd} and $Conf{DumpPostShareCmd}:
$type type of dump (incr or full)
So just write a script with the above logic and pass it $type on the
command line when called from one of the above 'Cmd' variables.
