Here's a brief update on this issue: After taking the automounter out of the
equation, and hard-mounting all file systems, the last differential did not
show the spurious warnings on crossing file-system boundaries.

Whether the Accurate differential backup actually worked, I do not know yet
(see other thread titled `More Bacula 7.4.4 differential Backup
strangeness'), that will take more investigation.

Best,
  Andreas
