Do amanda dumps actually span multiple tapes now, or does it hit EOT
and restart?

# I recently updated the amanda packages from 2.4.1p1 to 2.4.2.  In the
# process, the amanda folks have made major changes to their tape
# changer code.  I did the best I could, but I have only one (flaky)
# changer to test it against.
# 
# If there's anybody else out there who's using the
# amanda-server-2.4.1p1 package with a SCSI tape changer, I would
# greatly appreciate it if you could test the new amanda-server-2.4.2
# package in your installation.
# 
# I have a hunch that I'm going to need to change a few lines of code,
# but it's nasty and difficult to read, and I don't want to change it
