How do you know it's restarting?

Amstatus is pretty much useless for this kind of debugging.
What was in the Amanda E-mail report after you killed it?
Looking at the matching amdump.<NN> file, find where it does either a
FILE-WRITE or PORT-WRITE of that area. Anything out of the ordinary
from that point on?
Can you re-configure/re-build/re-install using --with-pid-debug-files,
make another run and look at the /tmp/amanda/sendbackup*debug files on
that client after it appears to restart?
