I can't say this with certainty, but seems to happen more often when
backup destination is tape, and less often when backup destination is
disk.  Actually, I always backup to disk first, then copy disk backup to
tape.  But if the tape drive is offline, it skips the last step (copy to
tape), and it seems the umount is less like to cause a problem, or maybe
never causes a problem.  Not sure.   Haven't been watching this behavior
rigorously.  But I wonder if there could be something in the tape kernel
driver that locks something in the filesystem, resulting in a deadlock
when there is a umount request.
