I hit this problem backing up a server with 300G of files.  The error
was fairly intermittent, but I noticed that when it happened, it always
stopped on the same file.  So I split the backup and did a separate
backup of the directory containing that file and I haven't seen a
recurrence in the last 2 1/2 weeks since I made the change.
