Are you by any chance running into data timeout issues?  Citing the
relevant lines for a failed DLE from one of your amanda report mails
would be helpful.  That would essentially mean that your GNU tar dump
breaks off at a certain point, and would give rise more or less to the
symptoms you describe.

(Following Jon's advice to use amrestore will tell us more about this
possibility.)
