Seems like these are all the zero length files...
Could it be that backuppc is checking for file length rather than file 
existence???


Note: when I delete the backup and run it again, the *exact* same
"file doesn't exist' errors reappears (even though a new btrfs snapshot
has been created).  So I am pretty sure it is not a filesystem issue
but rather likely a bug in backuppc...
