Certainly it is possible, however, it still seems strange that backuppc
saw the EOF and logged the "removing in-process file" before then
logging all the delete lines....

I assume the AV could say "these files no longer exist" but backuppc
ignored the EOF, *and* marked the backup as completed successfully....
