Sorry, I don't know of any non-awkward way. The problem is that, in
general, the increments are only useful if the mirror data is
available. And that changes every time you back up, so it's not a
very good match with CDR.
You could burn the whole thing on a CDR though. For instance if your
backup was small enough you could back up for a month, and then burn
the whole destination directory onto a CDR. I'm not sure about the
capabilities of the default CDR filesystem though. They probably
don't support hard links and such.
