The sa(4) driver is getting back toward usability it had a while back, but
it's still got a long way to go. I'm not quite sure yet whether I've fixed
your specific issue because I haven't done tape spanning yet.

I have done some simple tests and it's now back to what it should have been.
Fixed block tapes still have problems reading logical EOT, but that's been
true for a while anyway.

You can pick up the current scsi_sa if you want to try it from:
