Thanks Nathan,

I committed the patch to amgtar.8.xml.

I did not committed the patch to sendbackup-gnutar.c because it is not maintained, use amgar instead, it use the same gtar program but it is more easily configurable.

Sure, it is better to write:

I noticed that this change was included in the Amanda source:
   http://sourceforge.net/p/amanda/code/5764/
   http://sourceforge.net/p/amanda/code/5765/
However, it looks like the corresponding change wasn't made to the amgtar
man page; a patch to do that is attached.

Also, is there some reason this same NORMAL RE wasn't added to the
sendclient-gnutar.c file?  I assume many sites now have client machines
running GNU tar 1.27 or later, but are are still using 'program
"GNUTAR"' dumptypes and thus don't have an easy way to manually
add this message to the NORMAL list.

Anyway, also attached is a patch to do that.
