There is a solution for VMware vSphere (ESX/VC 4.0) which would be
perfect. VMware Data Recovery claims to backup a virtual Disk- but after
a first full backup only the changed blocks to NFS or wherever you like.

I haven't tested it for myself, but as far as I can see this is what we
all want. Just the disadvantage to buy the VMware vSphere and VDR
products....and your backuppc needs to be virtual (is here anyways....).

I'd prefer this, too and I'm waiting for some feedback. If I can get
some time I'll try it for myself soon.
