I don't know what increments the counting mechanism, as this is
the first time I've noticed this and I frequently have amanda
dump reports showing a single DLE on a tape I'd assumed that
only completed DLEs tripped the counter.

It may be that with tape spanning integral that a partial DLE
will do it, and that the systems reporting only a single DLE
on a tape are all from older (pre-tape spanning) versions.
