Interesting -- I get the same regex, but my regex library (in libc) doesn't
complain about it.  I haven't heard of anyone else having this problem, either.
Do your local modifications include any sort of funny business with the regex
library?  Remind me what OS you're running again?

I get:

amrecover> setdisk /tmp/amanda/prefix/etc
200 Disk set to /tmp/amanda/prefix/etc.
amrecover> cd amanda
regex: ^amanda$
regex_path: amanda/$
path_on_disk: /amanda/$
path_on_disk_slash: /amanda/$/
/tmp/amanda/prefix/etc/amanda
