amrecover confused by tapedev 0 config

I'm using the tapedev 0 configuration style for chg-scsi as suggested in TAPE.CHANGERS. This confuses amrecover, which expects to see 0 as a valid tape device rather than looking for the changer config file to determine the correct tape device. Yes, I can use the settape(sp?) command, but it's
