Doesn't that suggest it was not ignoring the strategy?
Sounds like it wanted to do incrementals but complained
it was not allowed to because of the strategy.  Guessing here.

Left over, unchanged message from when only the two strategies were available?

However, more reading would uncover in amanda.conf:

#   strategy    - set the dump strategy.  Valid strategies are currently:
# ...
#                 "noinc"    - do level 0 dumps every time.
#                              Unfortunately, this is not currently implemented.
