Jeff have you tried --remove-older-than 30B for 30 backups?
that might do what you want.
Other than that, I always use --force on remove-older-than if space is
the problem - deciding between having the next backup complete and
loosing an extra increment.

I know I can add --force to make it delete all old increments, but it
seems like I shouldn't need to use a force option when I'm using the
delete-old option exactly how it's intended to be used.
