I noticed this problem after upgrading to 2.6.0 from 2.5.something. All of a sudden it wouldn't complete a backup run and I was getting messages from cron about the planner segfaulting. I culled some items from my disklist, and all of a sudden it starting working again. After a little experimenting, I've come to the conclusion that it's happening whenever a backup estimate generates a backup size that's bigger than the current tape size. The debug logs don't help, they just end after closing a connection for an estimate. I do not currently have tape spanning enabled, although it will probably be something to try soon.

Anyone else seen this or have a fix? I havn't had a chance to look into the source yet, figured I'd ask here before I started poking around at something I wasn't familiar with :)

Thanks!
