[rdiff-backup-users] check-dst-dir fails but not implicit regression

[Peter Schuller]

When doing --check-destination-dir on a backup it fails with the stracktrace 
below.

The file it fails on is drwx--S--- in its original location, drwx------ in the 
backup.

However, running a new backup with this backup directory as a target DOES NOT 
fail; the automatic regression performed prior to taking the backup completes 
successfully.

Here's the stacktrace (filename censured):
