There is a case I reported to the list some time ago that had to due
with double mount requests. I do not remember the specifics as it does
not seem to happen lately, but the sequence of events was:

<Media A in drive, but not yet recycled or something like that>

1. Mount request for Media X.
2. purge volume Media A
3. mount
4. Mount request for Media A
5. mount
6. Backup runs.

I believe what you told me was to remove automatic mount and AlwaysOpen
= no. But at any rate, I think cases relating to those directives are
others where this can happen, or at least could in the 1.x series.
