Thanks Peter. I have to use "." in the FileSet to catch all the sub 
directories. I didn't realise until I tried to restore a set backed up this way 
that the . was actually hardcoded as part of the path. Bacula is backing up an 
invalid pathname and you are forced to manipulate the restore the way I did in 
the end.

I'd suggest an option to collapse /./ where detected on a restore would fix 
this, ideally a flag you can set to on by default, as all my backups are like 
this.

Also it would be nice to remove the problem completely by having a new option 
to collapse the written path /./
