The disk device does not matter if you're using tar.

Not relevant. Amanda will do all the necessary conversions.
I always use mount points in disklist because there is no way I'd remember
c1t3d0s3 was /utdb. But that's just my own theory (and bad memory :-).

What version of GNU tar are you using?
Go find the index files (look for indexdir in amanda.conf, then find
the client subdirectory then the disk subdirectory and finally the
.gz files). Run zcat on a recent one and look at the first few lines.
If you see really big numbers, you have a broken version of GNU tar.
Get at least 1.13.19.
