Backup failed today, with the errors

"/usr/local/etc/amanda/Daily/amanda.conf", line 26: configuration keyword 
expected
"/usr/local/etc/amanda/Daily/amanda.conf", line 26: end of line expected
amgetconf: errors processing config file 
"/usr/local/etc/amanda/Daily/amanda.conf"

Line 26 says

maxpromotedays 0        # Ensure reasonable number of incrementals

I had initially missed the final 's' of maxpromotedays, but even after 
correcting that, amcheck gives the same errors.  What could I be overlooking?
