I believe this is intended behaviour, and it's the behaviour I want.
after all, when I tell Bacula I want to keep that backup for 180 days,
that's what I actually mean, and I don't want Bacula to start using a
fresh tape when an old tape can be recycled instead.  (Note, Bacula
should only recycle media which is present and available without human
interaction.)
