Updated to 10.11, no change.

Amanda does not dump or flush to tapes because of that error.

I am not aware of any changes to the amanda config lately.

Switching the parameter "taperscan" from "lexical" to "traditional" 
works around that now.

Although I remember that Jean-Louis told me back then to use "lexical" 
to make things work with my setup of aggregating multiple chg-disk changers.
