I also get plenty of "stat" errors like this:

stat "/mnt/backup/lisa/g/Work/PC/DataAnal/AttS94/Old
analyses/CONFLICT.HLM"
failed: No such file or directory

This may be a kernel 2.6.5 issue:

The problem might be related to capitalization of the file path. The files named
in the error messages are indeed being copied (at least some of them --
haven't
checked all) but with different upper/lower casing. Perhaps rsync is creating
the file with one casing, then checking for its existence with different casing,
and therefore the mismatch prevents it from finding the file?

Yep, adding iocharset=iso8859-1 as a mount option for the VFAT filesystem cures
the problem. It's a 2.6.5 kernel bug.

Thanks for figuring out this is really a kernel bug.
