So assuming I want to add more ignore messages from a file, perhaps
I could read from /.amanda_sendbackup_ignore. Is there already a set
of functions within the amanda source to read such a file in? Or
should I write my own functions to accomplish this? I'd prefer the
former, since I am unfortunately not very experienced with C.
