6200 - --dump is not needed for incremental traces
This undoes commit 5764, which was ill-considered. We already had incremental prints at that point to 'last_run'. As long as we don't run out of RAM on large traces, there doesn't seem any need to print to stderr. Now '--dump' is only needed when juggling multiple traces.
