[Box Backup] Some weirdness with bbackupctl

I was having some trouble with a machine running the client daemon. It
had been running properly, but for some reason, my nightly cron job
(bbackupctl -q sync) quit working. The cron log showed the job running,
and I had deliberately uploaded some files to one of the backed-up
directories to test, but the log on the server side showed no attempt at
a login by the client.
I discovered that issuing the command directly wasn't working either,
unless I issued it twice in succession.
After doing a stop/start on the client daemon, it appears to be working
properly now.
Has anybody had a similar problem?
This was in Linux (2.4 kernel) using the 0.08PLUS2 release (for both
bbstored and bbackupd.)
Thanks much,
Marco
