Ah.  Okay.  That's a solaris ufsdump feature... linux, too, maybe
others.  It won't work for the BSDs (filesystem only).

And that's _if_ amanda passes that on the dump invocation.
I haven't tried it either or looked at the code yet.

But one limitation (with solaris' ufsdump and linux's dump) is that
you can't do incrementals using that method.  Level 0 only.  I don't
know if amanda adds support on top of that to kludge in incremental
support - I doubt it, but I'm someone will speak up if you can.
