You should be able to just configure, compile, and install the amanda
client sw on that system and it should work. The ./configure script
should look for xfsdump and note it's location for use with xfs
partitions.
I didn't have to do anything special for my system running xfs under
Linux, other than create a symlink to where amanda was looking for
xfsdump (IRIX places the binary in a different location than it ends
up under Linux, and configure didn't detect it). But that's since
been fixed IIRC.
