For some reason the new backups file wasn't written successfully. Perhaps your file system is full? The previous version, as you found, is in backups.old. In 3.x the writing of these files is a lot more robust (it does a write to a new file, reads the file the verify, and only then renames it). 3.x also has tools for reconstructing the backups file if it is lost or corrupt.
