Now I hacked up Amanda's source code to ignore these WARNINGs. The patch
is attached. It's a diff against the current CVS tree of 2.4.2p2 but it
works for plain 2.4.2p2, too.
The patch introduces a new category DMP_WARNING to the array of regex in
client-src/sendbackup-dump.c xfsdump's output is checked against. Adding
the "failed to get valid bulkstat" line to DMP_NORMAL didn't help
because the regex for DMP_STRANGE containing "[Ff]ail" are checked first
in client-src/sendbackup.c. So dmpline_t parse_dumpline(str) would
return DMP_STRANGE instead of DMP_NORMAL. Now it returns DMP_WARNING
which is handled by void process_dumpline(str) in the same way as
DMP_NORMAL and DMP_SIZE.
