HINT: you are using a bad version of tar. If you believe you have a good
version...be sure that you configured amanda
with-gnutar=/your/path/to/non-sucky/tar. As an extra hint, you can tell
by looking at the config.cache file and see what your ac_cv_path_GNUTAR
entry is. 

If you are desperate to amrecover something from this dump, let me
know...I may still have my notes on how to clean up this index mess and
still recover from it. I have done it before thanks to help from John
Jackson.
