I got this working without too much of a problem.
1. Create a key file and a passphrase as described in 'man amcrypt',
store them in the locations indicated.
2. Use a config such as the following to perform the actual encryption:
define dumptype whatever {
# [... other settings ...]
encrypt server
server_encrypt "/usr/sbin/amcrypt"
}
