I have tried this with two 2.1.131ac10 systems but failed to have any
problems. One of the systems had ncr53c875 to drive HP DAT and three
disks, the other one had aha1542b to drive a Wangtek 5525ES and aha2940 to
drive one disk. I tried both variable and fixed block modes. I looked at
the commands the tape driver sends to the middle level SCSI driver when
untarring but there was nothing suspicious. GNU tar failed to read the
last 10 kB block but that was a tar problem.
