misc/amanda-server: taper: Cannot allocate memory

The maintainer is listed as ports at freebsd.org. I guess what I was 
implying was that perhaps the recent USE_AUTOTOOLS changes to this port 
caused this problem, but I can't be sure of that without testing. I 
think that having --with-mmap as default should work everywhere, but 
was looking for opinions if this would be a good thing or not.

Thanks,
Steve
