There is a way to edit the perl; just takes one line of edit, on the
old systems and that will fix everything too.  See the section
"Changing the name of the archive directory" at this link:
http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/backuppc/index.php?title=Change_archive_directory#Changing_the_name_of_the_archive_directory

I thought this was fixed in new releases so the perl did not need to
be edited, but i am still running the old version.
