Just to compare versions.....

For me it happens on 2 different servers which both run BackupPC-3.0.0

1. Centos 4.5, rsync  version 2.6.3  protocol version 28, 
perl-File-RsyncP-0.68-1.el4.rf

and

2. Centos 5, rsync  version 2.6.9  protocol version 29 on Centos 5, 
perl-File-RsyncP-0.68-1.el5.rf

Both are localhost backups run using rsync and sudo, so rsync version is 
identical.

Both have the same rsync commands and arguments.

$Conf{RsyncClientCmd} = '/usr/bin/sudo /special/rsyncSend $argList+';
$Conf{RsyncClientRestoreCmd} = '/usr/bin/sudo /special/rsyncSend $argList+';

$Conf{RsyncArgs} = [
  '--numeric-ids',
  '--perms',
  '--owner',
  '--group',
  '-D',
  '--links',
  '--hard-links',
  '--times',
  '--block-size=2048',
  '--recursive'
];

perhaps its a bug??????

maybe i'll try an upgrade to 3.1.0 and see if it still happens.

Regards,

Les
