Subject: unable to link, botch no matches, duplicate backups

Some strange things occured with my last full backup.

1) Looking over the full log, it shows that every share has been backed up twice. I see the first lines:
Running: /usr/bin/ssh -q -x -l backupuser server.strategicdata.com.au nice -n 19 sudo /usr/bin/rsync --server --sender --numeric-ids --perms --owner --group --devices --links --times --block-size=2048 --recursive --ignore-times . /var/www/
Xfer PIDs are now 27219
Got remote protocol 28
Xfer PIDs are now 27219,27220
create d 755 0/0 71 .
create d 755 0/0 23 ca
<snip all the rest of the lines about files in this share>

then a few thousand lines later I see:
Running: /usr/bin/ssh -q -x -l backupuser server.strategicdata.com.au nice -n 19 sudo /usr/bin/rsync --server --sender --numeric-ids --perms --owner --group --devices --links --times --block-size=2048 --recursive --ignore-times . /var/www/
Xfer PIDs are now 30658
Got remote protocol 28
Xfer PIDs are now 30658,30659
create d 755 0/0 71 .
same d 755 0/0 23 ca
Unable to link /var/lib/backuppc/pc/sd01.mel.strategicdata.com.au/28/f%2fvar%2fwww/fca to /var/lib/backuppc/pc/sd01.mel.strategicdata.com.au/new//f%2fvar%2fwww/fca
<again, snip the rest of the lines>

However the second time around, for some of the files it says it is unable to link. For other files it doesn't complain. Later on it says:
Unable to link /var/lib/backuppc/pc/sd01.mel.strategicdata.com.au/28/f%2fvar%2fwww/fmunin/fmel.strategicdata.com.au to /var/lib/backuppc/pc/sd01.mel.strategicdata.com.au/new//f%2fvar%2fwww/fmunin/fmel.strategicdata.com.au
Unable to open /var/lib/backuppc/pc/sd01.mel.strategicdata.com.au/new/f%2fvar%2fwww/fmunin/fmel.strategicdata.com.au/findex.html for writing
Botch, no matches on /var/lib/backuppc/pc/sd01.mel.strategicdata.com.au/new/f%2fvar%2fwww/fmunin/fmel.strategicdata.com.au/findex.html (ab6df936710eed803e8280b5c006544f)
pool 644 110/110 3915 munin/mel.strategicdata.com.au/index.html

The backup says that it continued, but I can find files that are not included in the backup when I go to restore them.

Any ideas?

p.s
$ df -i /var/lib/
Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on
/dev/sda7 726402944 518591 725884353 1% /var

p.s
This is the conf file:

$Conf{XferMethod} = 'rsync';

$Conf{RsyncShareName} = ['/var/local', '/var/www', '/var/vhosts', '/var/spool/cyrus', '/var/lib/cvs', '/var/cache/debconf', '/var/lib/dpkg', '/usr/local', '/opt', '/root', '/etc'];
#$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = ['/var/local/sdaold', 'sdaold/'];
$Conf{BackupFilesExclude} = {'/var/local' => ['/sdaold']};

$Conf{RsyncClientCmd} = '$sshPath -q -x -l backupuser $host nice -n 19 sudo $rsyncPath $argList+';
$Conf{RsyncClientRestoreCmd} = '$sshPath -q -x -l backupuser $host nice -n 19 sudo $rsyncPath $argList+';

# Do incremental backups every day, Full backups once a month
$Conf{FullPeriod} = 30.97;
$Conf{IncrPeriod} = 0.97;
# Keep the last 6 full monthly backups, then keep last 2 8monthly backups, and
# the last 2 16monthly backups. (So backups go back as far as 2.5 years)
$Conf{FullKeepCnt} = [6,0,0,0,2,2];
$Conf{IncrKeepCnt} = 31;
$Conf{IncrKeepCntMin} = 29;
