I'm going to have to look at the actual full bacula source (the URL that Dan sent me I can't get at).

I modified tape_pattern_tester to take another argument ('-E N'), which specifies the number of filemarks to use to close off a tape at the end, and just rewind (rather than use close(2) and let the tape driver write the 'correct' number of marks), and start reading.
