It would be great if one could specify the backup utilities used and their parameters via configuration instead of via recompiling. Short answer to your current problem: the FreeBSD port has got an option to enable snapshots. If you choose to use them, it patches the Amanda source. Since the FreeBSD port maintainers in general seek to be as non-intrusive as possible to 3rd party software, my educated guess is that this is the only way to achieve the desired effect.
