the runbefore script should not be returning immediately, what happens
if you run /usr/local/bin/binlog-backup manually? do you get right back
to the shell or does it take a while to write the data to restore.info?

if the job returns right away then there is nothing bacula can do, you
have to fix your script to actually finish processing before returning
(synchronous instead of asynchronous). For me bacula waits until the
runbefore script(s) have finished before saving data.
