Hi Qu,
  and thanks a lot, really. Your answers are always the best: short,
  detailed and very kind. You rock.

  I'm going to send a patch to propose to add your explanation above
  on the relative man page, if you agree.

  I'll do it.

  At the moment I just compared the file existance between my laptop and
  latest backup. Everything is fine.

  Well, I'm using this setup with ext4 and xfs, on same machine, without
  troubles.
  I've got files checksummed on the backup machine, so I can be sure about
  comparing integrity.

Anyway, thanks a lot again,
Andrea
