Hi 

My apologies for the delay. I'll answer your questions one by one.

1. What is the exact command you are running?

It seems to be:

rdiff-backup --include-globbing-filelist
"<file>" --print-statistics / "<remote ssh connection destination>"

2. What happens if you run with the -v9 option? Can you please paste
the complete log file?

Sure. Privacy edited (nothing removed) version shown below. Sorry if it
comes out bunched up, my client seems to do that no matter what I do.

3. What version of Linux are you running? And more importantly, what  
version of EncFS?

I'm using a newly upgraded version of Debian Lenny / Sid. The version
of EncFS on my system is the newest available at the time of writing,
1.4.2-2

Thanks
