If a backup fails in the first run then wipe it and start agian till the setup is correct.
Run two successful runs before considering a new backup done.

Normally when you get this error it means that the source file changed
during the backup. In that case you only get it once.

Can you look at the diff between /usr/bin/pstruct and
/mnt/backup/system/usr/bin/pstruct ? Perhaps the problem in your case
is that the file in the backup directory was changed. If that's the
case it might fix things going forward if you just fix the differences
(copy the source file to the dest manually) but I can't reproduce the
problem over here so I'm not positive it would work.

I think the problem is its a hardlink. I am moving the original out of
the way and then doing a backup and then moving it back to see what
happens
