Hmm, the only place where it does matter is in tape.c:

Normally, curfile.action is never SKIP when comparing, since all the
files are extracted and compared with the original ones.

The only cause I can think of is that you had an earlier comparision
error causing the current file to be skipped instead of comparing, and
this is why curfile.action == SKIP. Did restore report some compare
errors before asking for the next volume ?
