all the locking and magic is limited to a repository. hence my 
suggestion of having a smaller repository will lead to faster backups 
and quicker restores. rdiff-backup retrieves the PID of the rdiff-backup 
process if there are two current_mirror markers in the rdiff-backup data 
directory and throws this error if there is.
