No, only for very few ones. For example, the following files from our root 
file system get the warning:

The files themselves look normal permission-wise:

8.0K -rw-r--r-- 5 root root 6.2K Dec  3  2009 
/usr/src/linux-2.6.32.9/firmware/radeon/RV635_pfp.bin.ihex

The situation is similar for other file systems.

We have been running another differential by now, and always the _same_ files 
get the warnings. The files are all older than the last full backup and have 
not been changed between full abd differential runs.

Still stumped,
