I solve this using a custom cron script that calls mysqldump on the remote
machine before calling amdump, and I save the generated dump file, not the
raw MySQL files.
Big win, because it means that I can use this dump to restore the database on
_another_ machine without any problem (granted, I always use the same charset
for MySQL databases, so it's easier).
