I've got one server that all it does is back itself up that gives this
error. It started out only occasionally failing, but now I can't
complete a full backup without it bailing out with

I've ruled out ssh by invoking rsync directly, and when that failed
with the same exact error, I tried tar which also died with a similar
message.  Running the backup from the command line didn't reveal any
additional interesting error messages. It's like something is breaking
pipes on the machine after a random amount of time.

I am very confused by this one.... but have seen other similar reports.
