[OT] Time Machine vs 10.5.2

I have just noticed that none of the source files I have been editing in Xcode have been backed up since I installed 10.5.2 on Monday. A quick scan through my backups of last week and before show that things were working OK before the 10.5.2 upgrade.

My System log is full of almost identical entries as this for each backup this week:

On further examination, it seems everything has stopped backing up. My devlists mailbox in Mail doesn't show any recent backup either.

What is particularly annoying about this is that I have been lulled into thinking everything is working OK as the new Time machine item in the Menu bar does its regular animation to imply it is backing up.

Has anyone else noticed (or even checked for) a lack of backups, and does anyone have a suggestion how nudge Time machine into working again?

P.S Please no posts about Time machine not being a replacement for a proper SCM system. I do use one, but it so happens that this week I have been doing a lot of changes that haven't been checked in yet. I was hoping to see how things stood before today's changes, but alas not. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
