dump and restore are OK for small systems
use xfsdump and xfsrestore instead.
but what about a 1 TB system
SGI have been using this filesystem for a while so there must be a

I don't see how. If you have a tape that contains your data you can just
restore it.
You might be interested in checking out amanda as a frontend for restoring
files and xfsdump and xfsrestore for the backend.
We have just had to restore 100GB of files after a (2)discs failed on us
this was with a ext2 filesystem
?
If we had XSF and samba 2.2.1a how would we restore the ACL's ?
Using xfsrestore ofcourse :-)
the xfs dump/restore utilities know about acls and extended attrributes so
they will happily back them up.

Every program has two purposes one for which

I use the last kind.
