I'm not quite sure I understand where you're coming from.  XFS and Reiser 
are good at different things -- IMO you should use one or the other on 
their merits, not based on availiblity of a dump tool.

However, xfsdump on Linux will work just fine with amanda.

As an aside, I'm a big fan of XFS (4TB of formatted space on 4 servers), 
but haven't used reiser at all.
