I think you may be headed the wrong direction with this filesystem in a
loopbackmounted file, although it might be interesting to compare the
speed to normal nfs operation.
Even if you can't get the chown to work in the install script with the
disk mounted, you should be able to install on the local drive, then
before you back anything up, mv the directory where you want the mount
point, make a new one, do the nfs mount and make sure the backuppc user
can write there, then cd to the renamed directory and 'cp -a .' to the
mount point. That should set up a working system over normal nfs.
