The pkgs in [community] and [dibble] are the same so I don;t think that

Did you use -S for both or did you use -U for one or the other?
Dibble, I assume you maintain hibernate. Did you just add the backup
line? There's a "feature" in pacman that files aren't backed up unless
the version installed on the system has the backup entry. So, if you
add a backup entry, the time you upgrade to that package will overwrite
the conf file. All upgrades afterwards won't.
Ah, that explains it then. Something new everyday...
Also, Tom, if you want to see what pacman thinks the backup files are
for a package (let's say it's installed), use pacman -Qii <pkgname>.
That will tell you exactly how pacman should be treating the file.
Ah, two things before 9am, I'm off to a good start.
