This has just been fixed in CVS (I think I referred to the patches in
a message I sent to this list yesterday).  rdiff-backup is supposed to
be user friendly enough to detect when you are backing up a directory
into itself and warn you about it.  Here you are backing up /home into
/home/backup/rep/maildir.

That's fine since you've --excluded'd /home, but rdiff-backup still
crashed when thinking about it.
