Subject:   restore issues "Header with wrong dumpdate." and "getfile: lost data"

We have upgraded our AMANDA server from FreeBSD 4.x to FreeBSD
7.0-RELEASE.  We still have several 4.x boxes and are having issues when
we try to restore files on the AMANDA server for any of the 4.x servers.

We see the following errors running amrecover:

Header with wrong dumpdate.
Header with wrong dumpdate.
getfile: lost data
abort? [yn] n
Header with wrong dumpdate.
Header with wrong dumpdate.
Header with wrong dumpdate.
Header with wrong dumpdate.
getfile: lost data
abort? [yn] n
Header with wrong dumpdate.

Header with wrong dumpdate.

Header with wrong dumpdate.
Header with wrong dumpdate.
Header with wrong dumpdate.
Header with wrong dumpdate.
getfile: lost data
abort? [yn] y

So long as I keep saying no to the amanda abort prompt, the files are
successfully restored.

I've seen http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=120881 which
seems to apply to the "getfile: lost data" lines.  There is also
http://www.FreeBSD.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=bin/118087 which seems to
apply to "Header with wrong dumpdate."

118087 seems to have been applied to CVS in rev 1.51 of tape.c by
mckusick a couple of weeks ago.  I don't think it has been merged to
7-STABLE yet.

120881 seems not to have been applied to CVS just yet.

Does anyone have a guess as to when restore will be fixed in -STABLE?
