See if those files get created once you've got the backups running.  I may
have touched files in those directories to quiet things down - don't remember.
Amanda will populate the files.  They seem to be what it uses to figure out
what belongs on an incremental backup.

This was just a warning.  You'd been running a backup on export/home
which apparently died while this backup of /usr was happening.  This report
was on a file /usr/local/var/amanda/gnutar-lists/host.loca.site.corp_export_home_0.new
