Well, its sorta working.  The runtar*debug still says its the older runtar, I 
think because that path spec is still the older one, and it will all die if I 
change that one.  Since I changed the path to include amcheckdump, its 
apparently working too, its messages do make it to my log.  An email would be 
nicer though :)

I'll put the new version of runtar over the old one, probably the best I can 
do since that invocation is not part of my script, but is invoked by amdump 
itself.

It is pretty much caught up, doing about 5.5GB backups and with a larger drive 
I can reduce the dumpcycle a day, so while I'm fiddling today I'll probably 
do that too.

Thanks Ian.
