The patch at

http://savannah.nongnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/rdiff-backup/rdiff-backup/rdiff_backup/Main.py.diff?r2=1.85&r1=1.84&diff_format=u

adds a --no-carbonfile switch to disable it.  Even if that isn't the
problem I didn't see any harm in checking that patch in because there
are already similar switches like --no-acls and so on.

But it does look like a Mac-specific carbonfile problem.  Anyone more
familiar with Macs know what's happening?
