I found the "missing" contacts that I didn't think had synchronized from the BlackBerry. They made it into Kaddressbook correctly, but they didn't respect the "default formatted name" setting so they were in the wrong place of the list.
In Kaddressbook I use "Reverse name with comma" as the default formatted name. On the BlackBerry I am using "sort by last name" to achieve a similar effect. Once this behavior is understood, it is easy to work around. The BB contacts come into Kaddressbook without any categories, so it is easy to filter them and fix them. As a side note, barrybackup -v exits with an error. Thank you for this wonderful utility!
