Humm, I think we've both got the same warped view of that Jon.

order of "optional" and "append" enforced by amcheck

[Jon LaBadie]

Editing my disklist, and adding an exclude statement, I was
surprised to find amcheck required the "optional" and "append" 
arguments in that order.  By listing them in that order, the
amanda.conf manpage does suggest that order is required.  My
warped mind simply thought of them as options where order is
seldom important.
