Whenever I run a backup, it aborts with a message like:

  overflow: flags=0x65 l1=119l2=1702127986,lastname=var/spool/...
  fileListReceive() failed

Checking the BackupPC mailing list there is a posting from Craig Barrett
on 19 June 2006 that provides a fix (change "--device" to "-D" in the
rsync parameters) and references a patch file on SourceForge.

The patch file is named "BackupPC-2.1.2pl2.diff" and is available at
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=34854&package_id=27278
