Hmmm.  It appears that the file mode is not being interpreted
correctly by rsync.

First thing to try: replace --devices with -D in both $Conf{RsyncArgs}
and $Conf{RsyncRestoreArgs}.

Failing that, try just a smaller subdirectory and you could try
setting $Conf{XferLogLevel} to around 5 or so to get more detailed
information.

If you are still unsuccesful, try tar (either changing the XferMethod
or manually just by running BackupPC_tarCreate and pipe it into
something like ssh -l root HOST tar -C /somewhere -xpf -").
