Problem solved!  I found a gnome mplayer cache dir in my home dir which
had MILLIONS of files in them.  They were chewing up GBs of space, and
over 31% of the inodes in /home.  I have no idea how those files were
created.

It took several days of running "find . -type f -exec rm -f '{}' +" off
and on to delete the files, before backuppc was finally able to
backup /home.

What a pain in the ass.  Anyway, at least I know what happened and it
wasn't backuppc's fault.  :)

Ranbir
