Yes, I was trying to read vbackup's mind, from it's cryptic error  
messages.
It turns out I was an idiot (and I had hoped that the email had  
vanished into everyone's forgotten mail pile...).
vbackup isn't block based, but instead relies on interpreting the  
underlying file system.  I was trying to open an HFSX file system on  
my Mac, and so it gacked.  I've started an HFSX reader, but it's like  
to stall for lack of time.
