I'm far more optimistic about duplicity support though, as incremental archives seem to fit the glacier storage model much better. A git-annex special remote [1] might turn out to be much more challenging, if at all possible. [1] http://git-annex.branchable.com/special_remotes/

Once there's support for Glacier in boto (https://github.com/boto/boto) I would imagine a duplicity backend would be easy to implement.
