[rdiff-backup-users] Local variable referenced before assignment error

[Nic Watson]

This is just a bug report.

My destination directory is an SMB mount.

This is NOT the fsync problem.  I got around that one.

Python 2.4.4c1
rdiff-backup 1.1.5

I fixed it by commenting out the offending line (fs_abilities.py#208).

The error:
