The extent to which amanda deals with a tape changer is limited to the
tape-changer program (which is often implemented as a script).

I am currently using amanda; the server is a FreeBSD-2.2.6-R box; the
changer script that I wrote uses chio.  Only reason I haven't sent it in
is that someone else also wrote one, and probably did a better job of
conforming to the "style" used in amanda.
