The talk about backuppc-fuse sounds VERY interesting (instead of running 
"BackupPC_tarCreate -h host1 -n 887 -s /usr . | tar xf -" to a temporary 
filesystem),
I did a quick search on the net and it looks like there are some different 
versions around (Pieter Wuille's from Nov 2009 and unixtastic.com from Nov 
2008).
Are there other "newer" around? Does the one from Pieter work with BPC 3.2.1?
