Interesting problem ... and maybe not so simple.

What do you think of a little scripting?  Using command line NBU 
utilities perhaps you could build a new (temporary) policy just for the 
failing file system, kick off an appropriate "manual" backup, and delete 
the temp policy.

I'm a little curious ... what is causing single file system backups to 
fail ... anything in particular?  Sometimes the easiest way to correct a 
failure is to avoid it in the first place.
