I can't see how this could happen. Here are the three places
that function is called with that argument:
host% egrep "Xfer PIDs are now" bin/* lib/BackupPC/Xfer/*
bin/BackupPC_archive: $ArchiveLOG->write(\"Xfer PIDs are now $str\n") if
( defined($ArchiveLOG) );
bin/BackupPC_dump: $XferLOG->write(\"Xfer PIDs are now $str\n") if (
defined($XferLOG) );
bin/BackupPC_restore: $RestoreLOG->write(\"Xfer PIDs are now $str\n") if
( defined($RestoreLOG)
Every one starts with a "\", so a string reference is passed,
which is what that function expects. Is there any chance your
code got mangled somehow? Did perl get upgraded recently?
