Running 3.7.4 on solaris.
I had three backupsets.
One was deleted before it expired, the other two were allowed to expire.
Now I have three tapes that I can't use.

...but in fact it's only half-fixed. There is no way to delete backupsets
from the volume history.
Is there any further progress with this?
I can think of two workarounds:
1. Delete all volhist up to the date they were made.
2. Relabel the tapes with a new name.
...but I don't really want to use either of them because I'm using volhist
to track how many times tapes have been re-used.
