Yes, the original file is >2GB, but we have some more, even larger
files, which don't show this problem. 

Is it sure that the backup continues after the problem with all other
files? Or does the backup stop after the first error?

How can I find out which files in the backup store belong to which
original files?

Your second paragraph suggests that excluding files from the backup by
adding an exclusion-statement in bbackupd.conf will remove all backups
of this file. Is this true?

Unfortunately we don't want to try unstable or testing backup software
on our production server, therefore we will want to wait until a more
stable version is available.

Bye
