Thank you!  Now I think I know what happened...  When amrestore
finishes it asks if it should set the mode.  I assumed it was
the file mode that I had restored but it appeared to change
the mode of /tmp which is what I restored to.  That is why
the next amrestore didn't work.  What is amrestore asking
me about the mode?
