I've seen problems similar to this. A couple of suggestions: First, it looks like it is having trouble creating files. You didn't mention what kind of filesystem your pool is on, so if it uses inodes, you may want to check to make sure you haven't used them up. You can use the "df -i" command for this. Second, when I've had problems similar to this, I've had good luck with deleting the last backup and then retrying it. When I delete the last backup, I remove the folder for that backup and then the last line from the backups and backups.old files. I'm not sure if that is strickly necessary, but it works for me. :-)
