That sounds exactly like the problem I had a few months ago. It's a
glitch with IO::Dirent since XFS does not return type attributes. On
startup, BackupPC tests, whether "." returns type attributes, then
assumes, that IO::Dirent works okay.
The following patch to lib/BackupPC/Lib.pm makes it work again:
--- /tmp/BackupPC-3.1.0/lib/BackupPC/Lib.pm 2007-11-26 04:00:07.000000000 +0100

What kind of file system do you use?
