Is this specific to your use of S3? That is, have you tried this and
seen it work with another backend?

The reason I ask is:

In combination with:

> IOError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument

If you are backing up your entire file system, you are going to be
including a lot of special files in that backup (such as /proc). My
guess is that you have not seen this suceed with another backend
already?

If so I suggest that you re-run with -v5, such that you will see which
file was being processed when it failed. I suspect whichever file that
is, is going to have some kind of special property that prevents it
being read.

Likely, you're going to end up wanting to exclude things like /proc
and /dev.
