Douglas,
Many bugs are already fixed in the 2.5.1 tree, but we didn't made a release.
You can try the latest 2.5.1 snapshot from
http://www.zmanda.com/community-builds.php
It is only bug fixes since the 2.5.1p3 release.
I don't remember if this bug was fixed.

In looking at the source there clearly are calls to abort() in several

I'm running FreeBSD 6.3 with Amanda 2.5.1p3 from ports.
There isn't much information in the log:
