Thought you'd all enjoy hearing about my pain. ;-)

I have a VM, which is regularly backed up via block level snapshot. It started 
failing - would not boot, complained about filesystem not cleanly unmounted - 
so I decided to restore it from backup.

Just before midnight, I destroyed the machine. And then I started doing the 
restore. Guess what time the backup script runs? Midnight. Guess what its 
behavior is? It notices the filesystem is completely different, so it sends a 
new "Full" and clobbers the backup destination. Hooray! :-)
