OK, I figured out what happened.

If you restore just once using 'use all space', then the next time you 
backup/restore, it remembers that setting!

(I'm using FIBPlus's components, but I presume GBAK will do the same thing)

So now, I'm going to have to make sure I run GFIX after every restore, where 
'use all space' has not been specified, to make sure it doesn't stay in that 
mode.
