When running BackupPC_migrateV3toV4, I am getting the following once
on many of my backups
   setVarInt botch: got negative argument -2082826800; setting to 0

- What could be causing this error?
- How if at all does the above error affect my backup migration?

Note the error seems to be generated in bpc_attrib.c in the following
subroutine:

/*
 * Write variable-length unsigned integer in 7 bit chunks, LSB first
 */
static void setVarInt(uchar **bufPP, uchar *bufEnd, int64 value)
{
    uchar *bufP = *bufPP;

    if ( value < 0 ) {
            bpc_logErrf("setVarInt botch: got negative argument %ld;
            setting to 0\n", (long int)value);
            value = 0;
     }
     do {
             uchar c = value & 0x7f;
             value >>= 7;
             if ( value ) c |= 0x80;
             if ( bufP < bufEnd ) {
             *bufP++ = c;
             } else {
                    bufP++;
             }
      } while ( value );
      *bufPP = bufP;
}
