I did a quick search of the archives and looked at trac to see if the  
code had changed since 1.0rc2 was packaged and didn't see anything...   
sorry if this is a known issue.

I'm backing up a OS X 10.5.3 case sensitive HFS+ directory, and  
bbackupd is throwing an error on several pdf files (ab)using extended  
attributes:

21:15:44 WARNING: Exception thrown: CommonException(OSFileError) at  
BackupClientFileAttributes.cpp(603)
21:15:44 ERROR: Exception caught (Common OSFileError (Error accessing  
a file. Check permissions.) 1/9), reset state and waiting to retry...

The file which causes the error is:

There are several other files in the same directory with Skim markup  
stored in their xattrs, although this one has by far the most  
attributes.

Any other info I can provide to help debug let me know.

Thanks,
Eric
