It seems to have just fallen right over at the end of the tape. The "btape test" worked fine. Apparently I was too optimistic. See below for what the beginning of "btape fill" looks like.

It requires either one or two blank tapes, which it will label and write. If you have an autochanger configured, it will use the tapes that are in slots 1 and 2, otherwise, you will be prompted to insert the tapes when necessary. It will print a status approximately every 322 MB, and write an EOF every 3.2 GB. If you have selected the simple test option, after writing the first tape it will rewind it and re-read the last block written. If you have selected the multiple tape test, when the first tape fills, it will ask for a second, and after writing a few more blocks, it will stop. Then it will begin re-reading the two tapes. This may take a long time -- hours! ... Do you want to run the simplified test (s) with one tape or the complete multiple tape (m) test: (s/m) m Multiple tape test selected.
