No, I was missing that fact <frown>.

For our contract backup clients (who know what they're getting) we save
two CMU backups.  I suppose we'll have to figure out a way to do the
same.  If CMU works to save the data, we might just go ahead and use it
even though we'd have to restore it by hand.

We've only had to restore twice from CMUs, so it's not something that
happens all too often (at least not to us).
