So I just noticed that since upgrading to 0.6.01 my home directory
suddenly had statistically unlikely amounts of changes:

So I re-started the backup again while looking at it, and saw it
definitely "A":dding files that have definitely not changes (bunch of
kmail folders; no kmail running). I hit ctrl-c intending to confirm
that I can still restore, and now collection status claims:

         Incremental         Sat Jul  4 00:22:39 2009                37
         Incremental         Sat Jul  4 02:07:14 2009                34
         Incremental         Sat Jul  4 10:26:43 2009                 0

In other words the cancel effectively meant that duplicity is now
picking up a zero-volume increment rather than un-associated files.

I haven't had time to investigate, not yet anyway.
