My apologies. I should have looked at the code first. That really is
a message from Amanda.
There should be a bunch of stuff in your amdump.1 file. Look for this
message:
taper: panic: buffer mismatch at ...
and please post it and what follows it.

The backups are not relevant. It's the writing to tape that is in
serious trouble. This message is in a "cannot happen" section of code
(at least it was tested for :-). Basically it's saying the reading and
writing sides of taper (two processes) got out sync.
Did you do anything particularly odd with ./configure or in your
amanda.conf?
