This normally means the machine is running out of memory or some other
resource and it can't spawn another process.

A couple of versions ago I removed threaded_waitpid() from GnuPGInterface.py.  This kept resource utilization down, especially file handles, when doing long strings of incremental backups.

You can get the previous version at:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~duplicity-team/duplicity/0.6-series/download/656/duplicitygnupginterf-20090308130055-a8r7crbk76m7m40b-1/GnuPGInterface.py

I'm going to restore this version in the next release.  It's really needed.
