I've found and solved the problem. That machine has two NICs, both
gigabit; one is an nVidia gigabit NIC built into its nForce4 chipset,
the other a Marvell Yukon 88E8053 PCI-E gigabit NIC built onto the
motherboard. I switched ther machine's network connection to the
Marvell Yukon, and the backup is now running quite happily.
This sorta suggests to me there is something subtly wrong with either
the drivers or the firmware for the nForce gigabit NIC.
Any other users who run into this problem on similar hardware might want
to try using a non-nForce NIC.
