Just thinking out loud here, but couldn't you achieve the same result  
by using the automounter? The the drive is present, the automounter  
would mount it up and then BackupPC would be happy. If the drive  
isn't present, the mount should fail and BackupPC would error out  
because its directory tree would not be present.

Perhaps it's not as pretty as the scripted solution you're using, but  
I think it should "just work" otherwise.
