I'm having a really hard time figuring out how the taper in
amanda-server could cause this sort of trouble, unless your server has
bad RAM or a kernel bug of some sort?  On the other hand, while I run
amanda-client daily on amd64 systems, my server is a 32-bit machine, so
I can't rule out the possibility that taper is doing something wrong
entirely.

Any chance you could try running taper with strace and capture what it's
doing when the system hangs, or something like that?

Alternatively, anyone amd64-savvy want to help me understand what might
be causing the problem reported in bug #338335?
