When that is done, one gets the error:
"OSError: [Errno 16] Device or resource busy removing"

A similar thread was found in:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/rdiff-backup-users/2004-10/msg00043.html
and the wiki has:
http://rdiff-backup.solutionsfirst.com.au/index.php/FsyncErrorError

That wiki entry has a patch in it, but I don't know about the quality.

Also, 
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/rdiff-backup-users/2006-05/msg00121.html
mentions:
"I had to remove the --windows-mode but it still does not work"

Was there once a --windows-mode switch? It isn't there any more...
