You mean the new estimate is "full size of data to backup" while 'tmutil compare' only reports a bunch of really changed files? The full backup is 800 GB, on the backup volume are 'only' 200 GB left, so the strip phase does not succeed, and the backup gets aborted.
I could make enough room on the (brand new) backup drive but I don't trust my repaired iMac enough to delete a the copy of the backup I've on that volume - and risk the remaining only copy getting corrupted.
Three Lion installations died over a couple of days with pretty odd symptom for a failing disk, so I'm not 100% convinced it was the disk and not RAM/a cold soldering spot/the disc controller.
Thanks,
