I would first take a look in /tmp/amanda/sendbackup.*debug on the

of those filesystems. Then set "dtimeout" accordingly.
This is the file:

I can't see a time anywhere?
That's because it seems gnutar is crashed a little later.
The last line of the file should be something like:
sendbackup: time 1234.123: pid 1234 finish time Mon Apr 1 03:04:13 2004
The "time 1234.123" is only added in later versions (2.4.3 I believe).
But there should be a 'finish' line. Maybe you can find out something
about the modification time of the file (or last access time, but before
you take a look a the contents!). Any error message in runtar.* files?
I would try to run the gtar command above by hand:
gtar --create --file - --directory /var ... \
--etc --etc \
--totals . | cat > /dev/null
(Do not simplify this to ... --file /dev/null ... because then gtar
will NOT do a normal backup.)
