Mark,
I tested your previous version

I see a install failure

make[5]: Entering directory `/pub/prove/amanda-3.3.2-4/build/common-src'
Setting installation permissions on executables
   (dest=/usr/sbin)
   (chown=root:setuid)
   (chmod=04750)
chown root:root /pub/prove/amanda-3.3.2-4/inst/usr/sbin/amservice
chown: invalid user: `root:root'
Makefile:2292: recipe for target `installperms-exec' failed

probably not relevant, but I am not sure everthing is installed

$ cygport amanda-3.3.2-4.cygport list
   /usr/lib/amanda/amanda-sh-lib.sh
   /usr/lib/amanda/libamanda.a
   /usr/lib/amanda/libamanda.dll.a

   /usr/lib/bin/cygamanda-3-3-2.dll

   /usr/share/amanda/COPYRIGHT
   /usr/share/amanda/ChangeLog
   /usr/share/amanda/NEWS
   /usr/share/amanda/ReleaseNotes

this is in the wrong place
   /usr/lib/bin/cygamanda-3-3-2.dll
and also the name is unusual
