Back from holiday I try to work down my mail backlog.  I wonder why the first
line

   #!/bin/bash

does not have the effect of using bash as command interpreter.  This sounds
a bit strange.  Can you please in addition post the result of

   ls -l /bin/bash

Kind regards

     Andreas.

PS: It is always a good idea not to relay on specific Bash features if not
    really necessary.  IMHO the same effect as

      if [[ "$BACKUP" =~ .*\.bz2 ]] ; then

    can be reached by

      if echo "$BACKUP" | grep -q "\.bz2$" ; then

    (UNTESTED!) and works for any shell.
