Hey, Paul: yah; I'm already using tar instead of dump.

Yeah. It's actually the libraries, etc., that're giving me the most
grief. Guess it's time to hunker down and just get 'em all.

True 'nuff, but I wouldn't know where to begin. Think I'll take the
"compile, darn you" approach. Assuming I get it to work, is there
anywhere that I should put the binaries and/or patches/HOWTO for public
consumption?

P.S. I should explicitly thank Eric Schnoebelen as the guy who was kind
enough to send me the patches for Amanda under HP/UX. Thus far, I've
seen nothing wrong with them, but rather with my "development" suite
(ha!) under HP/UX. See
http://www.google.com/search?q=Amanda+HP%2FUX for the dialog.
